Thursday 121709

Felt yesterday a touch (just some stiffness, but also a bit tired today) and so backed off quite a bit.  AHR = 140, max 150.  8 miles.

Good interview with Nate Jenkins re: switching up training approaches.

PM – KZ wanted to go to the library, so she biked and jogged next to her.  My HR was pretty low throughout until she challenged me to push her up a significant hill on the way home (with a backpack full of books).  Picked up some Coltrane, White Stripes, Five for Fighting, Foo Fighters and Fall Out Boy.  It seems to me that libraries definitely carry certain artists.  Broomfield Library seems to have every thing ever put out by U2 and They Might Be Giants and Bare Naked Ladies, but nothing by Led Zeppelin.  WTF?  Maybe it is always checked out?

 



On the way back KZ asked me “why do people say, ‘and then everything went downhill?’  - It ought to be everything then went uphill because that is obviously much harder.”



4+ miles.  AHR = 137.  Max = 185.

  1. Well, she makes an excellent point.

  2. perhaps some connection to "a run-away train"? Kids are simply the best. I think that's why some of us like to run so much.

    The public library is the best. Rock on.

  3. I told her that downhills are not always the best. When I get to the bottom of the hill in Manitou, I am pretty much ready to be done with downhills.

  4. If you ever want to borrow LZ's complete studio works on CD, let me know.
