75

Just about 2.5 months to go.  Lets see, what did I do this weekend...

I stained a bookshelf (that I built with my own two hands)

Cooked some gumbo

vacuumed

went to dinner with friends

"quit" my Sunday school volunteer teaching gig to focus on a new teaching ministry...

Worked out a peace deal to end the 80 year long war between France and Spain.

Got a Sim married.

 

But no running.  Nope, none at all.  I'm not sorry about it, either.  My legs hurt again all weekend starting Friday evening.  That's pretty annoying, but not as bad as it was a few days back.  I opted to rest them over the weekend instead of aggravating any possible injury that might be brewing.  I'm really, really worried about an injury that may knock me out of cycling in the spring.

 

Speaking of cycling, contrats, Cassie, on deciding to ride the MS150.  Free advice--take the long route.  It's harder, but VERY rewarding.  They have people there to make sure you finish...  you won't be left on the side of the road.  Just save your energy for the park on day 2 if you feel gassed at all.  It is the centerpiece of the whole ride...  so...  very...  beautiful...  no words...  should...  have...  sent...  a poet.

 

This week's schedule: 

Monday-off

Tuesday AM/lunch--3 miles (fast)

Wednesday AM/Evening--6 miles

Thursday--Cross train (25 - 30 miles in the saddle)

Friday--Off

Saturday--10 miles (minimum...  I'm thinking 3 or 4 laps at Memorial, but I may just run White Oak)

Sunday--off.

 

That should do the trick for running.
