THE WRITE-UP.

machine-written, human-checked
Fifteen sessions in seven days and not a single day off, which was a bit much when I look at it written down. The strength work did the quiet heavy lifting, with weights, crossfit, pilates and six general workouts all squeezed in between the runs. Somewhere in there a half marathon went down in 2:19:24, because apparently one big day wasn't enough. A 5K in 23:13 and a mile in 7:22 turned up too, which is 7 PBs in total and bloody mental. That's 10h 17m and 540 m of climbing, so I'm knackered but chuffed to bits. Seven days unbroken, seven PBs, zero regrets (yet).
