Today was the big one of the week, the furthest distance I’ve ever done, and I’ve done it twice before: 14km. All I know is that it’s a long run, and it’s the farthest I can go without water and something to snack. I got so incredibly HUNGRY after 9km! My theory at that point was that the quicker I’d get home, the sooner I could eat. And yes, I am and was aware of how stupid that was. But somehow it worked, the hunger went away, and I had a good run. Tough part around here is that the first 1,5km and therefore the last 1,5km I run is very hilly. Especially on the way back it goes up in two parts in a way you just don’t want to do after 12,5km. I could change the route I take, but somehow it’s become a bit of a tradition to squeeze out the last bit of energy before the end. Just wanted to share that, since I always feel rather bad-ass for doing that :) Summary of the week:

  • 8km: 41,00min
  • 3km: 14,53min
  • 10km: 53,22min
