After a decent Week 13, let us check out what’s in store for this week.
Day 88 – 03/29/2021 – 1804/278
The first run of the week came on Monday. Surprise – I got to run twice on Monday.
The first run on Monday came just before the lunch. I got a short window of an hour, before lunch and wanted to really enjoy the Sunny and Windy weather outside. Fortunately, I decided to take the shorter route to complete a shorter distance. It was a good decision as I didn’t tire myself and could fix a quick lunch.
The second run came at the end of the work day. It was extremely windy for the past couple days, so one of the soccer balls that I left on my front yard had rolled down to the fourth house on my street. I decided to run up to that house, but the cold air and the sunny weather felt so great that I couldn’t help myself from running a couple miles just around the neighborhood. This short 2-mile run brought the total for the day to more than 10K distance. Happy with the day and effort.
Day 89 – 03/30/2021 – 1800/277
The third run of the week and third day of the week.
I knew I had to run at least 4 miles today to bring the total distance covered in 2021 to 1,800 miles. At this point of time, I am not sure if I would be able to cover that much distance, but I still have hope and am still shooting for it. Let’s see where we will land in December of 2021.
The run was around the Northville Downtown. I took the Griswold exit on the 8 mile Rd, before looping around the downtown area. As mentioned, my pace dramatically increased through the downtown area and could see myself finishing the run just before 4PM, as I had thought. I felt extremely hot after the run and the cold shower definitely helped.
This brings us to the end of the month and I know I have slacked a lot since January, but I am happy to have covered more than 50 miles in the month of March. I still have 9 more months to go and I am a believer of anything can happen if you just work for it. Let’s see where the next 9 months take me.
Before you go, please check out the week number 14 highlights. I finished 10.5 miles this week, bringing the distance to cover in 2021 to 1800.3 miles, that’s 6.61 miles every single day for the remainder of the year!
See you next week!
