Way back when, a big weekend meant heading out of a Friday evening, getting up on Saturday afternoon in time to head out again... these days it means something very, very different. To be fair, it'll still involve a lot of time out and about, a bit of staggering, and consumption of electrolytes and a wee nap when I get home.
Tomorrow I head out for 3.5 hours, then 2 more on Sunday for a chaser. There'll be the challenge of fitting in the running, enough recovery, eating and sleeping time, family time, baking (an essential!), and just a wee bit of work.By Sunday night I won't be wondering where the time's gone!
All going well, I'm hoping to do 45 km over the two days, but I'll give myself some leeway if I end up heading over lots of hills. The main aim at this stage is to slowly build up the amount of time I spend on my feet, so distance is a secondary consideration. That said, I am keen to gain confidence from being able to cover a good few kilometres on my longer runs. The main event isn't going to get any shorter!
Thanks for reading! Have a great weekend.
