Week 5 Wrap-up

Ok, just a quick update for now. I ran my farthest distance yesterday. 24kms. That'll seem like small potatoes in a few weeks time but for now that's about 3kms more than I've run before. I was tired at the end but not feeling too bad. Feet felt a bit rough though. I think I'm still getting used to the new shoes to some degree I think. The run went from home to the city and then onto Port Melbourne and then along the beach to St Kilda. It felt good to get myself so far from home. Bit of a pain having to take two trams to get me home though.

I had a good laugh during the run at one point somewhere between the city and Port Melbourne when I saw in chalk the word "Fat?" written on the track. I thought that was a bit odd until I ran a bit further and saw the follow-up which said "goveg.com". It's a vegetarian website run by PETA. So that's their advertising gimmick now? Call someone fat and then suggest vegetarianism is the solution? I love it. Can't see it working at all but at least it gave me a laugh.

After a bigger week last week, this week is a much lighter week. Time to give the legs some freshening up time.

Week 5 distance covered: 53.5 km
