I laid low last week. I was a little bit down about the job I ended up with (I really wanted the Criminal Intelligence Job), but I am getting over it. Christmas was chaos. Hopefully I will have some photos from it posted within the next 24 hours.
I did trail runs both Saturday and Sunday, 9 miles Saturday and 5 miles Sunday. I was supposed to go farther but it was a time management thing. I was lucky to go at all. The Saturday run was with a group of people who were all generally faster than me. We ran in the middle fork canyon near Auburn. Their speed may have been at least in part a measure of their sure footedness on some pretty steep and muddy trail. But they did something really unusual, I thought. Despite hardly knowing me at all but for the few minutes we ran together, they stopped and waited for me about every ten minutes or so. When people are that nice, it makes me suspicious!
Sunday I ran by myself at Cronan Ranch. 5 miles is one lap around the inside trail loop. That’s all I had time for. There is no such thing as a bad run at Cronan Ranch. It was absolutely wonderful again.
What’s the matter. Already too tired from your new workout schedule to post up some training info? Well, you better rest up and eat right so you can make it through the training and do the 50k!
Just let me know where I have to do go to support you in the middle of no man’s land. I have some fresh legs to give you if you need them
