Another decent week out the road, which leaves me feeling a bit more confident about Sunday week's Half Marathon @ Burnley. Not PB-confident, but more confident and certain of breaking 80 minutes than what I was three or four weeks ago after a shocker at Sandown. I'm still doing all the hard stuff on indoors, ensuring I get in some quality work (and it's helped), but the everyday work and the long easy stuff has been out and about with mother nature. Estimated kms about 80, 3 days of quality work and a 24km cycle to work along the Fed Trail has just buoyed the spirits a little.
I acquired a new pair of kicks - the New Balance 903, on sale as part of Rebel's Father's Day promotion. They are a genuine lightweight stable trainer (288 grams for a 10.5 US) and have a significant enough road feel to warrant doing the half in these rather than my Gel-Bandito's, which are only 20 odd grams lighter. 24kms straight out of the box this morning and I'm sold on them.
A big week of school this week, hopefully I get get in some decent kms without dealing with work fatigue and grumpiness.
