The double single mitten throw

I put a flourish to the end today's 14 mile run in a snowstorm with the double single mitten throw. It goes like this:

1. Run 13.9 miles.
2. Within sight of the house descend snow covered hill.
3. Step on extremely icy patch and gyrate wildly trying remain upright.
4. Launch mitten high into the air.
5. Retrieve mitten.
6. Go back to #2.

Same mitten.

14 miles @ 9:24 pace (yes, it's a lot of snow). 130 HR.

Be careful out there. Gyrating wildly is one smudge away from getting your head banged badly.

So, how many points does one get for a Double Single Mitten Throw?

Yes, this snow is getting old...and its only December!

Happy New Year!!

It's good to add variety into your routine to relieve the boredom. 2 reps is probably enough to start with - until you get the hang of it.

Happy new year Andrew.
