The contemporary name comes from the Old English
Þunresdæg, "Thunor's Day" (with loss of -n-, first in northern dialects, from influence of Old Norse
Þorsdagr, meaning "Thor's Day"). Thunor and Thor are derived from the Proto-Germanic god Thunraz, god of thunder, while German
Donnerstag is derived from Donar (see Donar Oak).
Thanks Wikipedia.
Today I brought thunder to my arms and shoulders. My abs and core are a piece of work, too. I can feel the muscles swollen this very minute. I can feel the burn and the burn is good. I've never-before used that sentence in any context.
