Quick update

I’ve really gotten back into training this week.  My long run this morning took my weekly mileage to about 52 miles for the week which is not too shabby.  The average pace has been 5:50/km which I can happily live with.

I’ve been really happy with how quickly I recovered from the marathon two weeks ago.  I’ve had no niggles at all except for a bit of tightness in the shoulders.

5 weeks to go to the Taipei Marathon.  It seems so soon!

    Yay Andrew. I too find that sometimes you get going hard again and are really excited about it.

    5 weeks to a marathon. Wow I bet you must be putting some mileage in around now.

    Two marathons just 7-8 weeks apart? That’s hard core. Good luck!

    Andrew,
    Just found your blog.
    I am running the Taipei Marathon as well!
    I will do the half-marathon. My first 21km.

    I live in Danshui and would love to run with you if you would like to come out.

    Best of luck,
    Nathan
