Did Pilates and some time on the bike. Was great after the week’s training and good prep for the 20km long run.

Loving the cross training. #CapeTownMarathon loading.

New Blog Post: As I (re)discover running I reflect on what it costs to run. Runners would love you to weigh in.

Another one toward #capetownmarathon. Looking forward to using a better tracking device. For now, happy with this run.

The easy / recovery run isn’t easy sometimes. It can be hard to hold back when you can run & want to run faster. Sometimes I do it right, this Saturday’s run was so hard in terms of holding back.

Slowly building up the longer runs as I train to start and finish @capetownmarathon.

Runners, how do you “check yourself” so that you’re not running faster / harder than you should be?

I love running but there’s something runners rarely talk about but I’ll be courageous about it.
