I’ll write on a more regular basis (weekly) and in Portuguese, since the team is Portuguese and so is the Marathon’s venue.

You can see a calendar widget on the right, it’s my training schedule, which I’ll be populating with workouts later on.

Last races seems quite easy and I’m controlling myself not to speed up. Strangely, this seems to traduce into better and better times. My 5k PB is now 21’42”. Loosing something like 7 kg in the past 5 months plays a role here, also.

The Vodafone Mini-Marathon is right around the corner (in two weeks), so I just have to do a decent time. From what I’ve been told, this kind of massive event attracts all kind of runners – particularly slow ones and fast walkers – so what concerns me the most are the first kilometres, where I’m planning to force a steady rhythm, and pass as much racers as I can, leaving the fear of hitting them, like in Corrida do Tejo.
