Pure Pleasure

This morning's run was just that. I rested on monday and tuesday and wednesday morning, I did a 5.4k speed workout. I mentally calculated the distance required to do a 70k this week and that entailed I do a LSD of atleast 13k this morning. I woke up early at 4:30 am, drank about 300 ml of water, had some museli and set out for a run that would start at 5:30 am. The weather was perfect and we did the entire distance really slow and easy. We caught up with some fellow runners on the way and hit the beach exactly at sunrise. I wanted to add an additional 4k by running a few laps in boat club but none of my fellow runners were willing. I decided to stop at 13k today.

This rest of this week's schedule is going to look like this:

a) Friday: 10k - Home to Marina - start time 4:15 am. Running ABC's on the beach while playing ultimate frisbee
b) Saturday 6.5k - Dimensions gym to Besant nagar beach - start time 5:00 am. Two games of ultimate frisbee on the beach
c) Sunday 34k - Reverse classic route with two laps in boat club followed by a dip in the swimming pool to cool off.

This makes it a total of 70k for the week. This also means that I stay off alcohol on friday and saturday but will gulp down a beer on sunday evening with some romali roti and mutter panneer followed by a few ice-creams
