Yesterday: 30 easy minutes on the treadmill and leg/back with weights.
Today: 2.5 hours of trimming trees with the chain saw and a 45 minute jog/walk with Toby.
At dentists office this AM read an interesting article in the July issue of Outside magazine re overtraining syndrome or OTS that is becoming more prevalent with the popularity of ultra marathons. Some of these individuals just completely crash and many never completely recover. Even after long periods of laying off.
Happened to Alberto Salazar who at one time was a world class marathon runner. Ended up not being able to run more than 30 minutes.
Steve Rinalla aka The Meat Eater on the Outdoor channel also had an article re bugs and microbes that have given him problems. Lymes for one, which resulted in four months of IV antibiotics and trichanosis from eating partially cooked Black Bear meat.
