I was pretty happy with this as a comeback after last week's set back. The Thur/Fri combo was a bit tough with Thur being in the evening after work and Fri being up at 5:20 am or so. I think I might have over-reached a little on Friday, but I knew I wasn't going to be able to run on Saturday unless I got up at 5:00 or so (I had to head out at 7:00 to go and join in a brew day of my prize-winning home brew recipe at a brewery out in Chiba).
Several runs, Wednesday night and Sunday in particular, were hot and tough. There is such a big difference between 27 degrees and 30 degrees.

About Me
- Stephen Lacey
- Born in 1963 under a camphor laurel tree beside Bilambil Creek, I now live in Tokyo with my Japanese wife and three sons. I started running in 2002 and my addictive personality soon clasped this foolish pastime to its bosom. I am also an enthusiastic amateur brewer and have won a few competitive home brewing awards in my time. Diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma in 2015, today I can no longer run, and my blog posts are more likely to concern the waxing and waning of my condition.

The 11 hours in the brewery would have been a tough workout.
That seems like a low HR % for the long run. A bit slower than Tesso though ;)
We're getting an idea of how hot it is over there. Watching Osaka live on SBS - they say it's 33C in the stadium. Women's steeple and men's 10k tonight :)
I think I might throw one of your Saturday type sessions into my training :-)
for your saturday session does your Gamin measure the % of beer per liter of blood?
I was in Tokyo the whole week and i must admit that wednesday was extremely hot even compared to Singapore...so much so that i elected to run on the TM !
Home brew seems like just the therapy for that stone problem :)
Good to see your training going so well during my hibernation.
looks like you are fit again, great to have you back! your on-line log and blog motivates me, too ;-)
