As of Sunday my tally for the year is 920 laps of Jacob’s. I’ll crack 1000 on Thursday if everything goes to plan.
On Wednesday I produced a personal best for 20 laps. I’m still pretty stoked with the effort. There are a few Ladder regulars expecting me to do 20 in under an hour. It’s doable but won’t be easy.
The weather has been hot with only the odd cool day. I expect my times will come down as the weather cools down.
One regular – Mark – is way crazier than me. When I do 20 he does 30. Then he goes back in the afternoon to do another 10. He’s nuts, in a good way. And he’s turning his laps into fartlek sessions running up the long flights then taking it easy on the shorts. I tried to run him down while he was on his last 5 today. He was too quick and it didn’t happen.
As usual here’s a spreadsheet of my times since the start of the year.
