Week 12: Lots and lots and lots of running

Halifax harbour from the bridge this morning

Kilometres this week: 58 kms 
Total kms in 12 weeks: 416 kms

Other training: no time for much else!
Funds raised to date: $3365.00

No time to write much tonight after one heck of a busy weekend. In addition to running 42kms (10 yesterday and 32 today), I went on a road trip to attend a MacIntosh family picnic yesterday, spent time on the waterfront this afternoon and visited with a friend this evening - so I'm tuckered out, to say the least.

In any case, it's probably enough to say that my training went very well again this week. I was especially pleased with today's long run because I managed to get out on the road shortly after 7:00 a.m. before it got too hot and felt great throughout - despite the fact that my route included  a number of fairly tough hills.

Plans for the coming week include lots more running, and another push on the fundraising side. There are a number of people who've said they intend to sponsor me but haven't yet, so another (gentle) reminder appears to be in order. :-)  I'm still hoping to raise at least $4,000 before I head for San Francisco in nine weeks time. My goodness, the time is going quickly! 

Have a great week, everyone!
