Accidental/enforced week off!!

Looks like I am having an enforced week off this week !! I DID have a hard ( but good ) week last week - but so far this week has been a disaster :) I had dead legs and a DNF on Tuesday - was supposed to do a 18K longrun this morning Thursday -- but I awoke to RAIN!!! ( and I don't do running in the rain!! - but this IS the first rain I have seen for about 3 months! ) - tomorrow is out as we are heading off for a weekend's glamping - but Saturday and Sunday may be interesting because there is a 10K trail/boardwalk along a creek through rainforest nearby. I may be able to do that on both Saturday and Sunday (no parkrun this Saturday either)

I was planning to have a rest week next week - I may have to rethink that!!

Oh just stunning, give me about 48 hours to find a plane & I'll come & join you.... 😆

Please make sure you take care of yourself though Bazza, you are doing alot of kms at the minute, we don't want you burning out. (I know you're in training but just being caring & sharing across the continents...)

You are definitely somewhere warm, I can tell by the photo! ;-)

That is so beautiful you can't NOT do it !

This is sub-tropical rainforest in southern Queensland - just a little inland from the Sunshine Coast , north of Brisbane.

BTW - it never stopped raining all day today so in two planned running days , I have had a DNF and now a DNS!!! :)

Not what you're looking for?
