Between the travel, the fatigue, I am getting it done. Rudy was man enough to go with me to Huntsville for our long run and I committed to two loops, or close to 30km, attacking the final 30-minutes. I think that effort kick-started my system. I ran strongly the next day, although I was quite tired. Then, on Tuesday, I felt like absolut...

I am getting accustomed to the crash-course weekends of Track Workout, followed by Long Run. The Track work has been going well, and the long run has been rough, both mentally and physically. Hopefully I will start turning the corner. This week I have felt the accumulation of the training load, as my legs were quite sore from the 16 x 400m workout and 100-min long run. However, an easy week that once again ends with a bang. Today I was jogging due to s...

I decided to mix up the training a little bit in terms of throwing in more intensity during the week. Monday I rolled quite well and comfortably, and Tuesday, I had to wake up at 5:30AM to get my run in, which is great because it gets so light s...

No doubles, no early morning or late night runs any longer as I re-commit to my family of girls. The great thing is that I already have noticed an increase in intensity. This also means not much racing, perhaps just a couple attempts. The pattern will be Mon-Wed-Fri is 10K + Gym (trying to pack on some lbs/muscle in upper body) and Tue/Thu will be 15K. Saturday will be track and Sunday will b...
