7d ago6:29

6:29

Welcome back to Project 20! Season 1 of this journey has come to an end in the most unexpected way. Today’s final time trial started strong—358, 356 splits—and for the first time, I felt like sub-20 was within reach. And then... my shoe fell off. Yes, you read that right. After over 4,000 runs, my shoe literally came off during one of the most impo…

12d ago1:32

1:32

Welcome back to Project 20! Week 27 of what started as a 20-week journey is done, and I’m less than a week away from my next sub-20 time trial. Honestly, I don’t feel ready—mentally or physically. After three weeks of intense build training, I’m sore and doubting whether I can hit sub 20 this Saturday. But, some of my best PBs have happened when I …

Project 20 - Weekly Update | Stiff, Sore, and Sorry (But New Shoes!) 2:19

19d ago2:19

2:19

Welcome back to Project 20! This week was tough—stiff, sore, and mentally drained. The speed session went well, but by the long run, everything felt slow and painful. Friday’s planned session didn’t happen, and I pushed it to Saturday, only to find out that my “rage fuel” ran out before the first kilometre. Breaking from the program for the first t…

Welcome back to Project 20! Week 25 is done, and it feels a bit like Groundhog Day—another week of ups and downs in training.

Despite the challenges, I’m staying determined and optim…
