Welcome to the thirty fifth week of running for the year 2022.
During the week of August 21-27, my running journey continued with determination and a focus on increasing both distance and speed. I challenged myself to push harder and achieve new milestones.

The following day, August 22, I decided to push myself further by taking on a 6.2-mile run. It was a longer distance than I had attempted before, and I wanted to test my endurance. Despite the challenge, I persevered and completed the run in 1 hour, 22 minutes, and 25 seconds, averaging 13 minutes and 21 seconds per mile. It was a significant accomplishment, and I felt a great sense of pride in my progress.

Although my pace slowed down slightly compared to the previous day, I completed the distance in 39 minutes and 25 seconds, with an average pace of 12 minutes and 41 seconds per mile. It was a satisfying run, and I reminded myself that consistency is key in improving my overall performance.
Throughout the week, I experienced a mix of challenges and triumphs. Each run presented an opportunity for growth, both physically and mentally. I pushed beyond my comfort zone and embraced the feeling of accomplishment that came with conquering new distances and achieving faster times.
As the week came to an end, I reflected on my progress and set new goals for the weeks ahead. I felt a renewed sense of motivation and determination to continue pushing my limits and striving for excellence in my running journey.
The week of August 21-27 was a testament to the power of perseverance and dedication. With each step, I am becoming a stronger and more confident runner, and I look forward to the future challenges and triumphs that lie ahead.
