Well done.

I've been following the Barkley on twitter.
John Kelly finished with 30 minutes to go and became the 15th person to ever finish.
Gary Robbins missed out by 6 seconds!!

Yeah, I followed Barkley on Twitter also-sounded rough.

Spent a couple of days in bed this week with flu like symptoms but feeling a lot better now.
Went for an 8km run this morning including my local parkrun which I took relatively easy.

Yesterday's cardio: 5 mile road run with five 1 minute intervals.

Today's strength training:
Push-ups 25, 15
Squat jumps 10
Jump rope 60 seconds
Alternate side lunges 10, both sides
Dumbbell squats 10
Burpees 10
Cross crunch 20, each side

This has been a easy week. I've ramped back workouts to rest up for tomorrow's long run. I also missed a run and a weight session due to excessive rain and work.

Ran this morning with the girlfriend (11.5km) on her local trails and then did a singlespeed ride this afternoon (14.5km.

I ran 13 miles this afternoon. I bit off a little more than I could chew. The temp was near 80F, sunny, and windy. I ran low on water and had to ration it on the second half of the run. I also mis-timed nutrition so I was in the verge of bonking. It's good to suffer sometimes, but next week is easy street.

Bluebells and cattails


Wind on the lake
