Red sky at night

The shift working continued which allowed me to get in 13.5 miles bringing my total over the last 3 days to 35.5 miles. I'd like to have put a couple of extra miles on but the sun was setting providing a magnificent skyline but dangerous conditions to run in. I had my music on which makes the time pass quicker but in the desert I will be "unplugged" so I can absorb the sounds and sights of the Sahara Desert. My game plan at the moment is to have two high mileage weeks and then have an easy week to let my body recover before the 79 miles in two days of the Great Glen. I'll definitely need a few days off after that before I build the regular back to back miles up. To those that say "I don't know how you can do that" I say, this is an example of how you eat an elephant, in small slices!
