Run -- 13.72k, 1:26:23
Notes
First legit long run in a while. Felt solid, didn't have the 'bone rattling' sensation at all, which is great. Good that 'durability' feels like it's still somewhat there. This is already at ~target HM length, so extending it from here is all upside.
69k, 6:51 time on feet for the week, 362 load. Fitness has hit 43. All pretty much on pace (well load ahead of schedule, but I realised that would be the case a few weeks ago when I realised that my E calculations were off, and fitness behind schedule due to a couple of meh weeks).
Been lax on strength stuff again, will try to do a little this afternoon. That said, wonder if the quality of this week was partly owing to spare recovery from that. Hmm! Want to keep my muscle in any case, so that sacrifice will have to be made.
Also on that note, BW is coming down. Avg low mid 72s now. Post-Singapore, appetite has totally normalised (less of that constant hunger I was feeling over much of the last few months). Don't know what the reason for that is exactly, but glad for it. I'm fairly lean, but keeping feeling well-fed and energised while dropping to ~70 could be some nice free gains for racing.
