Let's hear it ladies! Run report Nov 4-10th

[Grog]

Have been running nearly every day (a new thing for me) and cycling none. I'll get back on the bike when the sun is back in the sky.

I was looking at cyclists passing by and telling myself: how can you go for a 3-hour bike ride? until I remembered that I used to think, when sitting on my bike, passing runners: how can you just go for a 45-minute run?

I'm a bit confused. But enjoying running. So I'll keep doing that.

I'm a bit confused. But enjoying running. So I'll keep doing that.

I go through phases, sometimes years long, with my different activities. You'll return to cycling sooner or later. I haven't found the Rulebook that says I have to do one or the other. I'm more into running now than anything, but I know that at some point I'll phase back into cycling a little more. Spice o' life!

And who knows what else life will bring you??!! Enjoy it all!

Well, in my running world, I'm thanking circumstances that be right about now...

I was going to go run the Stinson Beach (California) 50k yesterday (Saturday) with a friend, but she had to bail and I didn't want to train and travel by myself, so I opted out in favor of the Woodside 50k Dec 1.

The Stinson Beach 50k was cancelled Friday afternoon at 4:30 due to the oil spill (the Park Service cancelled the event). We would have already been on a plane or even on the ground.

I'm hoping this is a good omen for the Dec 1 event. I ran 24 Friday and mtn biked 15 Saturday (instead of running 10... ) and feel astoundingly good. I think the extra 2 weeks of training will end up being a bonus.
