Amy seems not so sure about my socks

It’s “Red Socks Friday” and I planned to do a final (and first in 6 weeks) intervall session.

Well, not really like the intervalls I did in February and March (like this killer intervall), but definitely faster than I ran in the last weeks.

I chose to run 2 km as a warm up, 3 km at 5:00 min/km, 1 km break (5:45 min/km or so), 2 km at 5:00 min/km, 1 km break, 3 km at 5:00 min/km, 1.3 km cool down.

All perfect, all good, felt GREAT!

Yesterday I found a calculator to predict the Comrades finish time. Mine said 9 hours 00 minutes 31 seconds. Wow, that would be awesome, and I’d have to shave 32 sec off that time to achieve my dream finish πŸ™‚

It’s just a calculator. The reality will unfold on race day. Let’s see, but I’m in a very good mood.

Funny: Even with my long injury caused break, I ran more km before Comrades than in 2012, where I finished in 9h 23 min. I did 1,168 km before Comrades in 2012, and now I’m already at 1,184 km.

Distance 13.3 km / 8.3 mi
Time 1 h 09 min
Monthly distance (May) 135.3 km / 84.1 mi
Annual distance 1,184.2 km / 735.9 mi
