Training Update Tuesday

Day 2 of Week 2

So, 7 consecutive days getting up at 7am has worn me out! The last two days I've bailed and gone back to sleep for a while. Failed to drag myself out of bed. And it's been milder - thought that would make things easier? How do regular people cope with it? I know 7am isn't even early by many people's standards. I can't fathom it. Really. 

Running 5 times in a week was a first too. Running 4 consecutive days felt surprisingly ok at the time, but has, I am sure, contributed to the fatigue I'm feeling this week. Up until last week I always had at least one day off between runs. That said, Week 1 is done, I'm alive and I'm feeling happy with it. 

Week 2 is underway. I'm moving the runs around a bit as I'm heading off to the Austrian mountains for my inaugural ski trip on Fri night/Sat morning. Trying to squeeze a bit more in between Mon and Fri, getting the long run done before I go. And then Week 3 won't have any running at all. I'm imagining it might have lots of falling over in snow and getting up again instead ;o)
