    Need to start running again...

    Promised a colleague to make 15km per week, because she does 20.

    an hour on the road yesterday and 2 hours on the trails today.. super undulating, super muddy, super slippy and super fun.

    That looks fun, but definitely challenging. I would be covered in mud from falling by the end of that run. I am glad you are enjoying yourself.

    I need to get into trail running. Looks so fun
  • Working through a running progression (even though my stress fracture is not all the way healed, Dr said it is fine to be running on).

    If it continues to go well I'll be able to start running more by end of the month. Will be back to running full speed end of next week. 

    Getting tested for a genetic bone condition (HPP) to see if that's the cause of my stress fractures. Results should be in next week.

    I can't wait to get back to my running routine. Tired of the recumbent bike.

    Had surgery  yesterday on my hand to fix the tendons supporting the finger I broke a while back.
    Cut my palm open and fucked around, stitched it back together. 
    I'm not meant to get this dressing wet or change it for almost two weeks.
    We will see if that happens, but I ran this AM with UT held above the old heart.  Lol.  Was for sure slower without both arms helping to propel me.
    Good thing it was cold out so I didn't get a good sweat going with the arm exposed

     :lol:

    Wow. Hope you are feeling ok. That is hardcore. I think the day after hand surgery would probably be my excuse for taking a day off with no guilt. That was a warrior move!!

    That's awesome you were able to get out and run the day after. Hopefully you heal up quickly!

    Great 8 miles this afternoon. 2.5 hours Inc hills with my friend in the morning.

    Took away 2 things from the run... I quite like Ed's album.... And he should never colab with Elton John again 😂

    Hill runs.  I want to do some,  need to drive to some and do it.

     Not a warrior but what you said is exactly why I enjoyed the run so much.
    Not sure if I enjoy discomfort or just the idea of doing the opposite of what sane people would do, when it comes to this.

    Awesome! I'm not digging Eddie's new album so far. Will have to see if it grows on me.

    My new friend....put together and used for my first (short) session, this AM.  Will be on non running days....started with going as hard as I could for the 7 minutes I do at PT. It feels like a run up a steep hill.  Will build up to 20, hopefully  beyond, asap.
    Was happy to stop at 7 today.  :lol:
    If I can get to 30 minutes, going hard-core on this,I will be happy.

    2.5 hours this morning... We did an hour of hill work which gave us 1700ft of climb.. that's going to build over the next 7-8 weeks up to the event weekend. Felt good today

    Good work all. That slide looks hard. And 1700 feet - woah. I did 5.5 miles this morning. That was enough for me.

    By the end of march we should be up above the 3000ft mark... Which isn't as much as either of the race days, but hopefully the accumulation will pay off 🤞

    Damn.  Doing the 5300 ft mountain hike last year was brutal....with so much of it a rock scramble, but still enough for me to imagine a race in similar type elevations.
