    As part of the 2024 London Marathon, I am fundraising for VICTA, a charity that helps blind and visually impaired children. My mentor while in law school, Jim K (a blind attorney), has been a huge inspiration and an example of courage and perseverance. Please consider donating.

      Good luck DR!

       

       

      Cloudy and humid this morning and part of me didn't really want to go out.  I had a long run scheduled but didn't really feel it so I was considering switching to an easy run.  In the end, I decided to let me legs decide.  After about two miles, the choice had become clear - long run.  By the time I'd gotten 7 miles done, I was still feeling good and I decided to finish the run with a couple of miles of hills.  Just over 10 miles by the time I finished.  It's now an hour after I finished the run and I'm still feeling the buzz.

        Good morning!  Go DR!

         

        I rode another 41 miles.  I aimed for 40, and I succeeded.  Tomorrow is a run day, most likely in the rain.  Being as I only ran 10 miles this week, I guess I deserve a wet-assed slog to start the week.

         

        Have a great day!

         

        I'm still feeling the buzz.

        The warm and fuzzies make it all worthwhile.

            Good luck, Docket!

             

            Last night was the first time I slept like a rock the night after a marathon.   I was OUT.  9 glorious hours.  Now vacation really starts today

              Hey folks! Nice riding and running this morning, Docket, Fred, and PR! Baboon, enjoy a well-deserved vacation!

              Today's a SRD, and I'm going to enjoy every second of it.

              Half Crazy K 2.0


                5 miles. I waited way too long to get outside & was too hot. Telling myself I need to drag may ass out the door early for about 10 weeks for my half.

                  Ran my 50 K. Went well. Was short of breath in the last 6 miles, but not sure if I can blame the remnants of my cold, or the elevation chart:

                   

                  220 meters is roughly 500 feet.

                        No problem. I've been doing similar calculations for my race and hiking in Alberta.

                            That was hillier than I thought but was well warned and wasn’t expecting much. Came in a bit slower than KY predicted but it was hot after the first half so I cal it a win. Maine is done and I hope Missoula in a few weeks is as flat as I have heard.  My legs need it.
