Russian champion tries Crocs, commits to racing a marathon in them
Nikolay Chavkin in the video below did 3x1000,
first two in Adidas carbon-fiber models, the last one in Crocs. Surprised by the result (2:52, 2:52, 2:50) with
the fastest interval done in Crocs, he committed to racing a marathon in Crocs if the video gets 42K likes and
195 comments (for 42 km 195 m, the marathon distance). Nikolay's current marathon PR is 2:14:00. The video
was created by a Russian sporting goods store chain. Their moto is
"more sports - brighter life", which we think is wonderful, and also deserves a Like. If you want to see a fast marathon in Crocs, go to the video and click the Like button. And make sure to share it with your friends.

| AM - just under 6 miles with Dan from his neighborhood with the dogs. I had been given a gps smart collar for Finn from my son-in-law. Either the device is not working correctly or there was user error - as it indicated that he walked 2.7 miles :)
PM - 2000 meters of rowing followed by 2 miles of easy running on the treadmill.

| AM - 6 miles with Dan and the dogs on the horse trail roads - 28 degrees with a "feels like" temp was 24, but it was really not uncomfortable. Strange how adaptable we become from the first cold weather in October. Yoga session following the run back at the house.
PM - 2500 meters of rowing followed by 2 miles of easy running on the treadmill.

| AM - 2000 meters of indoor rowing and then a 1 mile jog on the treadmill before church. Feeling some of yesterday's effort in my hamstring and foot this morning.
PM - 5.25 miles around the neighborhood with Finn. Bright sunshine and blue skies but deceptively colder and windier than I had expected. Kept my pace and effort very easy. Yoga session after.
