The Ginger Runner Global Run 2018
Today was finally Runday, and I’ve been looking forward to this for ages. My cunning plan to get out and be the first in the world to run didn’t work out, so I had to settle for a nice casual run in the sun instead.
I didn’t really have a plan, apart from running up to the top of Mt. Victoria, so I just followed my feet and went wherever I felt like running. It was a nice and relaxed pace after pushing myself quite hard during the week.
It’s been really fun participating in this challenge. I’m now running 20kms every weekday morning before breakfast, and doing it easily within two hours. So my fitness has already improved. Indeed I was 8 minutes faster at the end of the week than I was at the start.
So I’m going to try and keep on with the 20km morning run for a few weeks and then try to bump it up to 30km.
I also have to start hammering the hills to build my legs up for the Tip Track Marathon next month. That’s going to be a huge challenge just to survive it and make it to the end.
Summer looks like it is just around the corner and I’m hopeful it will be another good one. I’m really looking forward to getting out there and getting into it. Bring it on!

Are you new to Steemit and trying to figure out what it's all about?
Head over to: https://www.steemithelp.net/. It's the best place to get a handle on what the platform is all about.
Make sure you apply plenty of sunscreen now your Summer is on its way. :)
hehe you sound like my wife. I don't use sunscreen very much. I don't think it's good for you. Instead I either cover myself up or stay in the shade during the middle of the day.
it's worked pretty well for me so far :-)
You will start to burn, put somr children's sunscreen on might be a bit more gentle for you hehe
No need to be a masochist to run well... but a bit of pain could make you stronger. ;)
