Alright, I'll wear it proud, I watched pretty much uninterrupted from when the Pro's started filtering into T2......and I LOVED it. Love being the key word there, as winner Pete Jacobs so clearly described in his speech. It was a good one, with lots of different subplots along the way......but this year the real battle royale was the women's race. With "Chrissie" out of it for the year it was anyone's race, but the favorite had to be Mirinda Carfrae (AUS).....but give it up for Leanda Cave who was just tough as nails.
Anyway.....not having much to report out on since my last note, life is as hectic and crazy as ever, however little training is getting done. So here's the quick catch-you-up:
- Ran on a tow path and strained my R Achilles tendon
- Nursed it for a couple of weeks and was feeling better
- Tried to run on it about a week ago.....immediately flared....DARN
- Have done a few light lifts and a bike ride here or there
- Have continued to nurse the Achilles, which I am giving more respect to now that there are obvious signs of more severe strain
- Have largely given up on a Dec marathon as my longest run in the last 6 weeks has been 8 miles and the Achilles is giving me 3-4 at best
- Have continued to chase some soccer kids around the globe (or the tristate area at least)
To be continued.....
