woke at 6am  (Friday is the beginning of the weekend in Dubai)
breakfast:  2 small pieces of toast and a strong coffee

RUN:  3 hours

Comments:  I drove about 20 minnutes to a great place in the desert to train — Ghantoot.
It was like usual, clear and sunny … and hot.  The last 30 minutes was very difficult.
I wore a backpack with water which was uncomfortable at first, but I soon got used to it. 

Since my channel swim, my shoulders have been sore for at least 1 month — thus, I took a break from all training.  (they even hurt when I ran) 

But now they seem to be better, and I have trained well this week.
I feel much much better this week — just because I am exercising again.
