    M, are you planning any runs in Europe?
    Extra gear to haul around/wash, but I imagine this could be a great way to see some local spots.

    I’m definitely bringing my running gear. I guess I will see about how I feel about running outside and what the outside heat is like. A few of our hotels have gyms so I can always hit the treadmill. But I know I will be walking many miles a day. I always do when I am on vacation. Lots of sightseeing. We are staying in a few smaller towns in Czech Republic so it might be easier to run outside there than in Prague. We also booked an all day hiking  tour in the Bohemian National Geopark. So, I will for sure get my cardio in.

    The local 4 miler for charity today... Not sure of exact placing but I think top 10 in A time of 27:21. The winner was 23mins! 😂😂 I followed that up with about 6 pints of Spanish lager and a take out 🤷🏼‍♂️👌

    Got my big races planned for 2023!

    The Snowdonia spring crossing (52km 8500ft of climbing) in march.

    And Endure24 (24 hrs, 5 mile loop as many times as you can/want) in June.

    Those endure type races are so cool- live that you have these planned!

    Had our local 5k today...matched my pr time from 2 weeks ago but my watch called it a PR, so I'm gonna go with that.  :lol:   
    Ran out of gas after a great start.  Finished 2nd in my age group and first among 48 yr Olds, or older.  ;)
    Small races are fun but lack some of the juice/buzz of that larger ones.

    I cannot wait, Wales is just a beautiful country. Especially around Snowdonia, I love it there, there's some magic in the air

    Right now I'm enjoying the shorter stuff, a nice change of pace (literally) it's fun to mix it up. Running out of gas on shorter faster races is definitely a common thing for me too 😂 although the longer stuff has helped, not to make me faster but to hold onto my eyeballs just a little longer.

    Starting my half marathon training now, goal of sub 90mins. Then it's 4 months ultra training again.

    Congrats on the PR too. It's great here to literally see everyone's improvements and consistency, love it

    Thanks.  I'm starting the half training in August, I believe.   90 mins is like going to the moon, to me.  :lol:   
    Sub 2 hours will be good!

    Wow! That all sounds amazing. I can't wait to hear all about them.

    Nice job! You have been doing a lot of races lately. That must be fun. I had a decent run today. My run on Saturday was really hard. I had gotten my second Covid booster on Thursday, and while I had no major side effects from it, I think it affected my run on Saturday. Today's fun felt back to normal. I passed a milestone on my running app - so that was cool.

    Awesome, strong work!
    Glad to hear things are ok after the second booster

    Hard rain this AM.  Intervals were a bit slower than normal but it was rewarding.  Rain when it is 76 and 95% humidity is so very different from when it is in the 40s and windy.  :lol:

    Yes it is. Sounds like you had a good run. Today is an off day for me. Back at it tomorrow.
