MagicRun Training: 8 weeks before raceweekend.

Starting someting new, a weekly training update.


Last week was 8 weeks before raceweekend.


We had a heat wave in the Netherlands so I needed to change my training plan.


Monday 7/22 Was a rest day because I was at Disney on Sunday.


Tuesday 7/23 A morning run because of work, it was 26 C / 78 F. , so I did a easy run.
I made a ice bottle of water so the water stayed cold, that was really nice. I made this for the rest of the week because it was going to be hotter.
It was a really slow run with a 9 min pace for 1K, but it's ok because of the weather.
Total Km's: 5.25K


Wednesday 7/24 Today it was 31 C. / 87 F. in the morning so it's going to be a very hot day.
Later that day I was so glad that I did a morning run.
It was a shorter run than the day before but it was a better run.
Pace per Km was 8.50 min.
Total Km's: 3.20K


Thursday 7/25 No run today, today was a cross training day.
I did the 9 min killer workout 3 times, the workout is from Alexia Clark, you can find this workout on her Intagram TV.

It was an afternoon workout and on that time of day it was really hot, 38 C. / 100 F., but it was a really nice workout.
It was the hottest day in the Netherlands and tomorrow It will be the same.


Friday 7/26 last day of training this week.
Glad it was a morning run because the temp was 31 C. / 78 F. in the morning, later that day it was again 38 C. / 100 F.
Today I had a character stop, or I was her character, it was so much fun. (you can see her in my training vlog, you can click the link under this post)
It was a slower run than Wednesday but it was faster than Monday.
Pace per Km's was 8.39 min.
Total Km's: 4.61K


I'm really glad with this week, I could still run with the heat because of the morning runs and I did my cross training that was really nice.
No long run this week but next week the temps are lower so than I will do a long run.
Total Km's of the week: 13.1K.
