Recently I ate sushi for the first time. The sushi train restaurants are now common around Sydney but I never went in as the thought of raw fish just turns my stomach. I never knew that there was chicken teriyake, edamame, seared salmon and wagyu beef! I've was slow to join the trend but now eat it for lunch at least once a week - its a healthier option than oporto :)Meanwhile, this last week has revealed two hurdles in my training effort.
1. Party season - yes, its that time of year, the Christmas celebrations have started and my first work party was on Friday night.
2. The onset of summer. Today is scheduled to be 39deg! I was up early to try and beat the heat but an hour after my return my face still looks like a tomato! I knew it would be tough training through summer, but I did it last year and understand that I just need to plan to avoid the hottest part of the day.
Although, I'm finding it difficult increasing my distance, I'm still feeling really motivated to get out and run. My marathon mentor - Mark, who got me through Canberra - has provided me with a training diary that starts tomorrow. So I'm on track... Paris, here I come.
Shame you are off tearing up the pavements on Wednesday. Would have taken you to that Sushi train plac we went to the other week.
