Well I got week 8 all finished up. Decided to drive from Dallas to my mountain property in Arkansas to initiate week nine. I figured all the flatland around Dallas was not nearly as much fun as doing something stupid like running in the mountains. Of course the day before I spent it dragging 100 kilo logs with a rope across the mountain to build a log cabin for my grandkids. Then drank a bottle of red wine. Made waking up fun. Then I went to the bigger mountains 20 miles north and did my run. What a beautiful painful morning. I never would have believed I could run for 30 minutes after doing something so stupid the day before and enjoy it. I guess the Endo cannaboids got me too. I’m hooked. I can’t wait for the next one.

Week 9 run 1
Wow... a Mountain Man...how fabulous...I love the photograph!
Very well done..you are getting so close now and after that extra exercise... really doing wonderfully !
Wow Monsieur Cuisses de Grenouilles, a mountain run with a hangover and achy muscles from cabin building. You are a god! Only two more runs to the podium!!! I am well impressed...and I moan about my hills (they are pimples compared with your mountains) x
I was definitely slower than my normal slow. The first 15 minutes were pretty rough . It was a great morning though. Next time I’ll leave a car at the bottom and run downhill. I may leave the wine in the car until after too. Absolutely prefer running in the woods to the pavement in town though.
I love everything about this post - sounds like the perfect day!
