Not an Itzak Walton fan then, Hugo? Be quiet, and go an angling…

Hugo, you make me look lazy with my cardio—30 minutes (tops) on the stairmaster or a doing a few miles for a midnight run (I’m fairly nocturnal by habit) is augmentation for my other activities, including grappling and Thai boxing. But then again, the latter two aren’t exactly anaerobic. But it’s been said that “running is the king of all exercises” since it helps so much just about any sport.

I do miss the long treks, and distance running the wilds of Michigan, where I used to live. Autumn is absolutely beautiful for a serious enthusiast.

Oh, I’d love to run sub 3:40 again; but anything under 3:55 would be fine.

How fast are you planning to run the marathon? I guess I could work it out from your post, but I think in kilometers, not miles anymore…
Thanks.

(When you run with folks who are truly rail-thin most of the time, even a few extra pounds leaves one inclined to pick such a label.)

Because God forbid you should forget that you’re “fat” just because you run marathons through an open desert, or whatever. Sheesh.

OTOH, I enjoy sitting still for long periods of time and I still find fishing dull. It requires good company to work, I think.
