This was a disappointing week. All 3 days I was unable to meet my targets, ending up with sub 20 minute runs.
I need to sort my shit out, because I don't believe I'll be able to live down failing myself for the second time like this.

Where'd you go?
First off, I haven't been very active lately due to the trip preparations going into a full swing, Japanese lessons I've been taking, gear preparations and finalising the paperwork (and getting flat tyres 2 weeks before the trip because my luck sucks balls).
Secondly, here's a little trip overview:
Length: 16200 +/- few hundred km's (or) just over 10000 miles.
Time frame: 3 months max.
Start Date: 23rd for the motorbike shipping. I'm flying after it on 27th.
General Country plan:
Direction: East - West
Japan, Russia, Mongolia, back to Russia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Czech Republic, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, France and back to UK.
Couch to 5k week 8

This week was bit better than the last one. I've moved my runs to 4:00am asnd have to say I find them much more enjoyable now.
Also, I've checked the distance I've been running and it turns out I've been doing 2.5 mile runs for 2 weeks now, which is a pleasant surprise.
Now it's time to start pushing that bit higher and higher.
Not gonna lie, I never thought I'd be looking forward waking up early to run.
P.S Have a cool EDM mix for your listening pleasure.
Couch to 5k: Week 6
The plan: i.imgur.com/oNWww.gif
Did my runs last week, and did a bit better on the long one than before.
I must say that I'm genuinely looking forward to the "proper" sessions I'll be doing this week.
If I can do 30 minute run (as opposed to a carefully paced jog as I do now), I'll be damn impressed and will most
likely end up preaching that shit for a while :P
Couch to 5k: Week 5 v2
I dun goofed.
Last week I did 5/3/5/3/5 routine for three days straight without realising I'm supposed to change it up :doh:
Anyway, I did follow the proper plan every day and have to report that my legs suck donkey balls.
I couldn't finish the 21 minute run non stop and my legs just gave out at 14-15 min mark.
I tried to start again, but it felt like starting an engine with a dead battery. I tried, but ultimately failed.
Oh well, we'll see what happens next week I guess.
On the plus side I've cleaned the house, preopped the bikes for the next week and booked the remaining jobs needed for the Tenere for my April 2015 trip. Luckily, Mong

Keep your double chin up; you are doing better than most of us. And that means me. Not working out since a year ago and I am finding it hard to start.
