Thanks ‘Sealtest’ Milk Man for the lift 10k outside of town, left hip wasn’t feelin’ long run today… funny quote from the guy, “you ran from there?!” haha … Another thanks to Speed River Physio for squeezing me in today! Back at’er soon..
Fuel Up
Long tempo on tap this morning, not much for breakfast so took in a gel here right before heading out to meet Reid, only live a mile apart… Roads were a bit slick in places, wind brisk…feels good on these days to get a solid effort in. Only the second of our marathon buildup, let the fun begin!
