"Long and Hard"

Well actually it never was that long, and if the truth be known in the last while it hasn't always been that hard either!....Hey....get your mind out of the gutter....I'm talking about life! Yes my life really hasn't been that long when you consider that our sun is 4,600,000,000 years old, never mind how old Cory is! And life has been pretty good recently all things considered.

Now as to my workout today it really wasn't that long either, at least if you consider a 100 km ride short. I knew I didn't have a super long one in me today shortly after I started out, and so when much to my surprise the road I was travelling on was closed, I thought it a clear message to turn around. Then at about 95 km's I got a flat which was good because I desperately need tire changing practice. I think it took me almost 10 minutes. Anyway back home finally and then out for a run. This was the pleasant surprise of the day as I ran the blcok in 34:30....a really super time for a "transition" run. So in the end my workout was still fairly long and it was indeed still hard. So there....long and hard!!

And that needs to continue because the clock is ticking. Check it out. http://ironman.ca/canclock.html

I wish to dedicate day 240 to my old friend Arnold Walker. Another guy I reconnected with as I get back into the local running scene. Arnie is one of the good guys.

...and on marathons and ironman races and such...
