Another step towards revalidation. I upped the distance today to a full 30K . My heartrate seems fine and my lower back is feeling better as well. Whatever I strained a week ago seems to have settled itself back into its place. I can only hope that it remains there, it's not a lot of fun being crippled of strength due to an aching back. I made good progress in my book as well, so much so that I had to lay it down. Donaldsons style of writing has me sweeping along the crest of his characters' intensities and there have been a lot of dramatics these last few pages. It takes the mind a while to process all that is happening. If you are into Tolkien, you will love Donaldson. At times, I feel Tolkien has met his match, it's THAT good.
Meanwhile I have at last - well to be exact, since last week - let go of the 1000k/month obsession , at least for this year. I have had too many setbacks forcing me off the bike for a week or more and by now I'm already lagging more than a 1000K now from that goal. Instead I will just concentrate on getting 10000K this year, which should be feasable unless I venture into another disaster.
