Monday, 5/04 - Even God rested. So today after 7 days of non-stop action, I did, too.
Tuesday, 5/05 - 75 min. chest, back and abs. Bolder Options graduation. If you have the time to commit, I highly recommend looking into this program.
Wednesday, 5/06 - 40 min., PM Hyland. Great, low-key run.
Thursday, 5/07 - 75 min. shoulders, arms & abs.
Friday, 5/08 - 50 min., up Dodd and back hard.
Saturday, 5/09 - 240 min., AM Afton. Saw a bunch of folks I love seeing out at Afton. Was a great run. Total nature walk, easy for first 15 miles then a hard effort for last 5 miles with a sprint up Campground Hill thrown in on dead legs at the end of it. Fantastic.
Sunday, 5/10 - Took ma out for dinner.
Spent rest of day reading "Born to Run." This is my new favorite book about running. I recommend everyone check this out...Then I wish everyone who ever questioned anyone about how they could possibly spend hours running every day would read it as well. Oh, we are meant to run! Oh, running is meant to be exuberant and joyous! Oh, it is also an expression of our love for others and the spirit of humanity which we all share. Not drugery. Not agony. But a free expression of humanity of which we (99.9% of the HUMAN RACE) are borne from.
Too bad we have all but forgotten that in this day and age of convenience and 'advances,' where exercise is viewed as some kind of necessary evil in order to fit into pants. Gah! People! Run for your lives!

Amen brother! I need to get that book.
Great running into you, Keith! 75k that day was way overambitious, plus I started out too fast and had some serious hip flexor problems. Oh well, 45k ain't bad. It was still a great day to be out and about at Afton, as every day is!
Sounds like a busy week!
