Treadmill. Actually had a good run on the machine today. The last several treadmill runs have been way to hard but todays wasnt to bad. The whole fam went up north and left me alone for the weekend. Woo whooo!!!!! Bachelor life once again. The sad thing is that usually consists of a lot of sleeping and thinking about working on my car but not actually doing it.
Ended up with almost 1000 more miles than last year but not the huge improvements in race times I was hoping for. Ogdens 8 minute pr came with less training than St Georges 1 minute pr. Im thinking its more about quality of miles and not so much distance. The trick is finding that balance I guess. Im going to try and work more on speed this coming year and see what happens. Its been a fun year of runs and lots of races and even a couple of wins. Yay me. Highlight of the year was having Dave run me in at St George. It would have been nice to have had something left to see how much he could have pushed me but it was still fun. Hes a great runner so any time I can be with him in a race I'll take it. I just hope I can keep that passion and love of running going and enjoy it for years more. |
