And some other days, everything fall into pieces perfectly.
I was feeling way better on Monday, and jump on my long run, ended up to keep a pretty good pace - please note the elevation - this is Maui - Flat does not exists.
Conditions were favorable, not too much wind or sun, but my new 9 min/mile pace, for 2:30 hours, I am pretty proud of id.
If I can hold this for the marathon, I am gonna hit less than 4 hours.
16 Miles. 9:20 min/miles. 2:30 min. |
One thing I noticed during this run. Even if this is "only" 4 miles more than usual, it seemed very very very long. Actually, running 2 hours and 30 minutes is a long time.
It was late in the day, with some traffic, then it was not the best run ever.
But this is promising.
Promising of a good long painful training...
Well, Ok. I screwed up a "very easy" job.
Less surprisingly, my fix of the brakes ended to break a brake line. This time, with a new line, it seems to hold. I am getting better at this. |
Ok, ... I am getting used to cars. Not exactly the same than boat.
Ok, I broke the brake line. But replacing it was a breeze.
Learning along the way.... I still do not really like it, working on the car, but at 100$/h for a mechanic that will do a crappy job... Let's just say that this is all part of the master plan to be in debt forever as boat owner.
Priorities, priorities, priorities.
And while I am stretching and groaning in pain, slowly getting better after the long ..long... run, we had those - once in a life time - sunset that Maui's famous for.
Well. Sometimes... It is just exceptional. |
Definitively a good day, to be noticed.
