So last weekend as you know now, I ended up doing 2 back to back races. A 1oK #NightRace followed by early morning 5K #YorkvilleRun. Both races were good and I did my PB in both. But now I can feel the symptoms of burnout. my Ham strings are like a Rock now so I am over using my Quads. This could soon go down spirally and end up preventing me from completing my half marathon #STWM.
Here I am in week 12 of training and I was struggling to finish my 5K tempo run and I am seriously thinking of resting for a week. Its like catch 22 if I stop I might not be able to catch up and if I don't I wont be able to finish the training. I finished it and used the foam roller and hope it helps to make it better by tomorrow. 

So I am down with 1st race of the weekend. The Toronto #Nightrace was fun at first I found the headlight we had to wear really annoying but once I got out of the crowd and picked a good pace it did not bother me. It was fun race lots of people with neon Pink and Green coloured T-Shirts and headlights lit up the Sunny brooks park. The race was really good I started with a really good pace and I think I did 1st 5 under 30. The 2nd 5K took a bit longer around 7K I felt like hell. Once I crossed 8K i was actually running at really good pace and it was really fast with short breaks in between. This probably was my best time for 10K. Next 10K I have to shave 8 mins to get under 60min time. 

The route was familiar and fun no steep hills just gentle uphill and downhill trails. It was bit crowed for so many runners doing a loop. But no accidents so it was great. More after tomorrow's Yorkville run
