Hot and Humid

Week of Aug 8 ~ 14

63.9km / 39.7 mi   6:21

5-day week as I couldn't run Sunday. No long runs, run times were 60, 65, 90, 90, 76.

Wednesday night was 5 x 1000, 2 x 500, with the 1000s at about 4:08 — well, it was 29 degrees and 80% humidity.
Weight consistently under 60kg, so that's good.

Sun - Club trip to Kamakura. Ran from the beach to the Great Buddha, back to the beach and along the beach road, back to start, then out the other way to the hills. Two loops in hills and back.
Total 106 mins, about 17k. Pretty hot but a nice day. Later in the afternoon over a few beers had a nice view of Mt. Fuji, then a nice sunset in one direction and a rainbow in the other direction. All that, along with girls in bikinis, made for a nice day. Should do this every Sunday!

  1. You're ticking along nicely Bob. Still way too cold for Sunday views like that. Temps slowly edging up - hanging out for some warm weather running.

  2. What does the number after your mileage mean? Like, this week it's 6:21.
