    a friend recently said to me "Don't let anybody tell you there's no difference between 70 and 80"    ??? 😃

      😃 😃  …but if you're speeding, the cops think it's a big deal.

                    @Nkwkfld Are you able to train the next day after completing that level of a training session?  Do you take a few days off?

                    I've done quite a few century bike rides (100 mile's - although haven't attempted that distance in the last 10 years) and a 30 km row, but I'm absolute crap for the next few days until I've recovered.

                      I’ve done a few of these 50k runs as training for the 100k event I’m doing in July and yes I do train the next day, but it’ll be mostly body weight strength training or easy swimming. Usually helps get rid of the soreness.

                              @sabergirl Seeing that map reminds me of the week I spent in your area.  Wife had a conference at the Grove Park Inn and I spent a week exploring.  Beautiful area!!

                              …and the food at the Grove Park is some of my favourite I ever experienced (not that the scenery didn't help or the wine).  🙂

                                Only read this today. Great initiative, @goosehd I'm also in.
                                ATM my thing is gravel biking. Did 41km each on friday and today.
                                Only 918km more to go. Thanks for giving some ambition.  🙂

                                  Add 6500m for a track run with about 20 others in drizzly Portsmouth this morning. 4x1km with 90 second rest in between and warm up/cool down easy laps.

                                    I did a little shorter walk yesterday, probably about 2.5km. Already got the walk in this morning, probably about 3km. My Oura ring isn’t pairing to the map, unfortunately.

                                        @steelworker @endo @sabergirl @Nkwkfld Thank you all for helping me get through the first week and in my opinion the hardest of any challenge.

                                        I really appreciate your participation and it helps motivate me a lot.

                                          @goosehd Would you mind sharing the graph from the concept2 online logbook (from their website) of your latest 10k?
