Might try 100km over the 8 days ?

Elation is a word that couldnāt describe my feelings at not having to see the ashen, pained faces ever again.
Closest thing Iām getting to training in the past 3 months is cleaning the bloody house top to bottom. My back is going to seriously kick my arse in an hour or two Iām thinking! ![]()

I used to occasionally walk from the main office park to the āshoppingā centre. It really is the grim end of society round there.
Our local Asda was like the dawn of the dead last night.
100kms in the Surrey Hills, this morning. #nottherapha500
Managed 3 sessions today! Steady 50 minutes on Zwift this morning, easy jog\walk for 7k along the Cleveland Way, itās very greasy and heavy going, jogged more than walked but very easy pace.
Then had a Christmas special TT up Bologna, usually get a double Bologna TTT about this time but not this year, I guessed I was safe from Fruity and Buzz ![]()
It was probably the hardest effort Iāve put in for at least 2 months!
Absolute wrestle with internet in the garage. 17 minutes wasted ![]()
3ā° in here, too .
May as well have gone out.
(And yes, this is still a WIP carpentry project!)
12.4 with Mrs T and the dog - cold and crispy morning - lovely sunrise
Do you keep your running shoes in the 3degree garage to lengthen the life of the foam, or because youāre a masochist who likes to put on freezing cold running shoes when you start?
Erm
No smelly shoes in the house. So itās a really warm changing room for me, too. ![]()
Donāt the foams get harder in the cold and wear out quicker?
Does anyone really know?, Iām sure freezing them is bad, just like high temperatures are bad, but I dunno if the recommendation to store them in ācoolā places is a 3degree garage or a 10degree garage, I only said it to comment on the ācold feetā aspect when going for a run.
Interestingly, these people say the new fast foam doesnāt get harder even in freezer temperatures, so maybe it doesnāt even make any difference for them.
