This past week has been spent meticulously re-reading my book, considering various suggestions for  elaborating on topics (and, in many cases, enacting these suggestions) and ensuring consistency of style (for example, date formats etc.). Although I have till mid January before I have to have this task finalized, I want to get it out of the way before Christmas. So far I’m on track.

My Achilles does not bother me at all when running now. It’s only sore when I bump or press on the scar tissue, and a bit tender when I get out of bed. Hopefully it won’t be long before I stop talking about it at all.

Kevin Carr is having a day off today. He’s had a stellar week, and now needs to run just 6,047 km in 114 days if he is to set a new world record. My money is on Kevin to achieve this goal.
