    @7lenny7 if conveyor belts are not your style, my brother and his wife spoke very highly of “bamboo sushi” as their favorite in town. They did mention it was a little higher end, also. My friend and I were quite content to create $20 fish food babies.

    Yesterday I focused on some mobility and some of my pt exercises. It’s becoming evident that I am going to have to focus on prehab if I’m going to stay over 15 miles per week or more with my gimpy ankle.

    Today, I got in 2.3 miles. = 31.2/40

    @Avidkeo I have new x rays. He was very pleased with the bone growth. I think the articulation of the hip look much better than it had. I’m hoping that alleviates my torn labrum pain.

    @midwesterner85 - I can't imagine running back to back marathons like that right after running a 50k!

    @7lenny7 - Hope you can make it through your race without pain or rein jury. Can you tape around your heel and achilles for some added support? Hobbes actually had a great road trip. We were surprised that the National Park was dog friendly even off the paved trails. You can even hike and camp with your dog in that park. He was also welcome in the UFO museum and into many of the historical sites in Los Alamos.

    @simcon1 - this is a HM taper plan from Jeff Galloway that I have used before and worked well for me. Or you could run another long run and then take it easy the week before your race, but if you have run 10 you are likely just fine to run the HM.

    I got in a make up long run today for the long run I missed out on on Saturday. I changed my intervals to 2 min run 30 sec walk and it worked well. I may increase the run interval just a little though - I don't feel like I was running enough. I also had a terrible upset stomach resulting in 3 bathroom stops. I think I may have been a little dehydrated from the drive yesterday - it's the only thing I can think of. I did take note not to run a long run on the same day as agility class. I was exhausted already and then to have to race around on the grass field with Hobbes was tough. He of course still had plenty of energy. Now though, he is crashed out on the couch 😁
