Training Log Week 28-30 – Two races Two PBs
Over the last three weeks I’ve had a few opportunities to run in winter weather. Had a nice icy run in Saskatoon a few weeks back and a record setting half marathon in crisp winter conditions in Vancouver last weekend.
I think this should be my next major winter marathon:
And now for 3 weeks of training logs…

Things that went well:
- Two PB’s! During the Phantom Trail Race I chopped 9 minutes off of my time during the orientation run.
- At the last minute I signed up for the Vancouver Historic Half. My goal was to break my previous PB of 2:21
Lessons Learned for Next Time:
- Lots of rest leads to race PBs?
