Happy New Year once again and welcome to my 27th Weekly Update and my first of 2021. Now we’re looking back on limbo week just after Christmas and up to the New Year itself. I’m still really enjoying looking back through my week in summary but I’m also interested to hear from you. Yes, you reading this post!.
Following my Christmas Eve run I didn’t get back out until 29th – initially I wasn’t sure how far I would run but I’m my head I said I wanted to run 7 miles not only did I achieve that I once again beat my personal best for 10k shaving off another min or so. 1.08 is now my time.
On New Years Eve I wanted to see how many miles I could get onto my last day of the year. I ran 5 miles taken my December tally to 76km so a little short off the 100km target but respectable for someone who didn’t run prior to June.
Not bad going and faster than I had thought. I had planned to get out today but I wasn’t sure what the weather was saying as snow has been predicted and to add to that my foot has been a little on the sore side so I’ve been stretching and I managed a 1min plank so far today. In some ways I’m upset but I’ve learnt my lesson in regards to listening to my body. Watch this space I can’t wait to see what I can achieve this year.
In hitting my GoodReads target last year I decided to up it a little so I’ve gone from 100 to 120. Seeing as right now I’m at home I should make the most of it. I’ve also set myself a target to aim to read at least 100 pages a day. So far I’m tracking ok and I’ve still managed to do day today stuff. I also would love to listen to more audiobooks – I have one on the go but I’ve mostly been focussed on my physical book.
