Hey all,
Sorry to disappoint, but there will be no substantive weekly update this week as I am off on my FKT attempt of the Besparmak Trail without access to the Internet. Stay tuned next week for my trip report and an updated weekly training log.
Wish me luck – or pour a little out in my honor. Either way, catch you next week!
