Training
Well as of about 2 weeks ago I am completely moved out of my rental house In Brockport, NY and back to my hometown of LeRoy, NY. One thing I have promised myself for the summer was to get back in to competitive running shape. I am starting to get older now (21 years old), and I believe that if I wait much longer, I won't be able to see what my absolute best performance could have been, because I don't believe I ever reached my full potential. Granted, I think I am a very well accomplished runner with a whole variety of awards and medals (128 ribbons, 28 medals, 4 plaques, and 2 patches), I feel there is much more to be accomplished. My main goals are to look lean and gain my athletic build again, run my 400m sprint under 50 seconds once more, and run my mile in under 4:30. We'll see how well I do and I don't plan on stopping til I get there. Also, I want to work on my cycling and get a bit more into that. Tomorrow morning (well....morning for me...which is like 10:00am), my training is going to start with a long, slow, distance run. I am going to continue this through the weekend, run the Saranac 5K race on Sunday with my father, then an easy run on Monday, and speed work on Tuesday (primarily hill running, and intervals). Wish me luck! And until next time, be logical.
