Thanks Gordon Big grin

Like Evryday said, it keeps me motivated. Mon...33.25K long run (almost 21 miles). The one I shouild've done yesterday but postponed. Tue...rest day. Recovery run was not possible because I had to leave the house very early because of the snow. Wed..15K bike commute. Went to the PT. She advised against running straight after treatment. But I still have 4 more days for running Wink

Thu...went to the dentist to have filling replaced. Have bad tooth ache since. No swim, no run. Fri....Tooth ache better. 9.9K run and 15K bike commute. Sat...8.5K doggie fun run. Actually more doggie fun than run. Sun..shortish long run: 21.12K in the rain. What happened to Spring? Summary: 72.8K = 45.5 miles (two long runs)

Dutchie
Run the day, or the day runs you.

Smile

Sunday - (run 5); decided to cross-train instead; 1 hour weights and pilates Eliz
