๐♂️ Running Journey 2026 – Week 34 Update
June and July was not one of my best Months.
I could feel some slackness creeping into my routine, and the consistency that I have been trying to build over the year started slipping. There were days when it was easier to postpone, easier to skip, and easier to tell myself that I would make it up later.
But running has taught me one important lesson:
Every fall is an opportunity to rise again.
This Month is not about pace, mileage, or personal bests. It is about recognizing where I am, accepting it, and taking the first step back towards consistency.
The positive side is that over the last 4 weeks, the mileage has been steadily increasing, and I can feel the endurance base slowly coming back. The focus now is to convert that mileage into consistency and performance.
๐ฏ Current Running Goals
I now have two clear goals:
Consistently run a 10K in under 60 minutes
Complete a Half Marathon in under 2 hours
The Sub-60 10K was achieved once, but the next challenge is to make it repeatable. Similarly, the Half Marathon goal will require a combination of endurance, pacing, strength, and discipline.
The goal now is simple:
Show up.
Follow the plan.
Build the habit again.
Stay consistent.
I have been here before. Every meaningful improvement in my running journey has come after a period of struggle, adjustment, and restarting.
So this is not a setback.
This is simply one more rise after a fall.
The focus for the coming weeks will be on:
Increasing consistency
Maintaining mileage
Improving pace discipline
Working towards a consistent Sub-60 10K
Building endurance for a Sub-2 Half Marathon
One run at a time.
One day at a time.
The journey continues. ๐
