4 days, 25+ miles and the Super Sunday 5K/10K
Last week, in what can only be described as a small miracle, I managed to:
- run 7 miles w/ Pickles on Sunday
- arrive early to Tuesday’s BAA indoor track workout
- race the Gobble Gobble Gobble 4 miler on Thursday
- run 10.5 miles with the Marathon Sports crew on Saturday
- open registration for the Super Sunday 5K/10K on Friday
The fact that I actually ran 4 times in one week is enough to make most of my (three) friends w
onder what the hell is going on. But factor in that many of these miles were fast, total 25+ and came without any complaints about my hip (or any other joints) even once, and we’ve got ourselves an episode of The Twilight Zone.
Lest you think I’m morphing into a runner, know that my buddy Jon came around me for a sprint sign during our 2+ hour ride on Saturday afternoon. He’s been riding the trainer for a few weeks… and losing that sprint was all it took to dust off my own trainer.
December goals: run three times per week, ride three times per week, run sub-18 at the Jingle Bell Run.
