Streets of Galway 08

Next Saturday 8th August take place the major running event in Galway city, the Streets of Galway. This race is organized every year by the Galway City Harriers, and sponsored by Future Financial Services.

It´s is a 8K long race. My last 8K race was in Maree, and there I did a 4:20 per K average. Last Monday I did an 8K test at almost race pace, and it took me 34:27, which means that I can improve my result in Maree.

The anecdote of this race is that I was absolutely convinced that the race would take place the 1st of August. With this in my mind last week I planned a really soft training, and on Friday I called the organization because I hadn´t received the race pack (chip and t-shirt), only to discover that the race wasn´t that Saturday, but saturday week.

I hope this event doesn´t affect my performance, I´ll inform you soon.

Bye!!!
