Run: 2hrs 47mins (18.1mi) / Gym: 2 hr 11mins / Crosstrain: 0min
A week of steady graft, small wins, and keeping the bigger goals in sight. Monday was all about knee strengthening—unexciting but essential. Tuesday started with just over 6 miles, trimming my usual morning route slightly, followed by an evening gym session, chipping away at the goal of hitting 3 sets of 8 pull-ups by year’s end. Wednesday was a rest day before Thursday’s ‘football’ run—4.5 miles at a relaxed 9-minute pace. Friday brought another knee-strengthening session in the morning and upper-body work in the gym at night. Saturday was a rest day before Sunday’s return to my full 7.6-mile morning run, easing through it at 9:15 per mile. Steady progress, smart pacing, and a knee that’s still on speaking terms with me—I’ll take that.
