Week 32 (July 31 – August 06) – MJ’s Running in 2022

Welcome to the thirty second week of running for the year 2022.

During the week of July 31 to August 6, my running journey continued with determination and commitment. I pushed myself to cover various distances and challenged my pace to see improvements in my performance.

On August 3, I embarked on a 3.1-mile run, aiming to maintain a steady pace. I managed to complete the distance in 42 minutes and 45 seconds, with an average pace of 13 minutes and 46 seconds per mile. It was a satisfying run, and I felt a sense of accomplishment as I finished strong.

The following day, August 4, I set out for another 3.1-mile run, but this time I decided to test my speed. I increased my pace and completed the distance in an impressive 38 minutes and 34 seconds, averaging 12 minutes and 25 seconds per mile. It was an exhilarating run, and I was thrilled with the progress I was making.

After a couple of rest days, I resumed my running routine on August 6. I started with a 3.1-mile run, but this time my pace slowed down slightly to 16 minutes and 7 seconds per mile. It took me 50 minutes and 3 seconds to complete the distance. Although it was a bit slower than my previous runs, I reminded myself that consistency is key, and every run contributes to my overall progress.

Not satisfied with just one run that day, I challenged myself further by embarking on a 4.2-mile run. I managed to maintain a pace of 14 minutes and 12 seconds per mile and completed the run in exactly 1 hour. It was a mentally and physically demanding run, but crossing the finish line was incredibly rewarding.

To end the week on a high note, I decided to do a short cooldown run of 1 mile. My pace for this run was 14 minutes and 26 seconds per mile, and I finished it in 14 minutes and 21 seconds. It was a brief run but served as a perfect way to unwind and reflect on the progress I had made throughout the week.

Overall, the week of July 31 to August 6 was filled with challenging runs, varying paces, and a deep sense of accomplishment. I pushed myself to reach new milestones and witnessed improvements in my speed and endurance. I look forward to continuing this journey and setting new goals for the weeks to come.

To summarize, I ran 14.5 miles in 3 hours 25 minutes and so far, I have covered 254 miles for the year, crossing the milestone of 250 miles for the year.

See you next week!
