Running vs Blogging vs Designing

Printer friendly version Posted on: Monday February 16 08:53:10 PM
Running vs Blogging vs Designing These 3 things have all been on my mind. However, Running is oof course, currently the more important of the 3. Designing, or re-designing this site has also been high on the list as well and I am happy to say I am glad it is mostly done. There are a few minor details to attend to and as usual, look and feel changes will take place as I am never really happy with what  icome up with.

That leaves blogging. I think I forget to more than anything, because when i sit down with the laptop with intentions to blog, i either get side-tracked right up the bat with site improvements, design changes, new ideas, or marathon treaining research...and the blog gets back burnered.

So, here I am, blogging again for the first time in a while, at least as far as the running blog goes. I am happy to say it has been a great past few weeks of training. The clinic has been going well and I have been able to fit in at least 9 runs a week. 1 a day most days with 2-3 "two-a-days" as well bringing my current weekly mileage to around 100km per week and almost 400KMs in the past 30 days. Although this is higher than my average last fall, it is still slightly below what I would like to be at but time warrants this, as well as not wanting to progress to high too soon to avoid injury. I have aquaintences that are hitting the 150k range and these are the guys running sub 3 hour marathons, so you can see why I am striving to get there. These guys swear by the high 'easy' mileage with speedwork only coming from a weekly tempo 'semi lonng' run and some harder intervals closer to goal races. If it works for them, I say give it a go. I can tell you, I alreadt see a difference in my speed vs effort in bith my tempo runs and long runs.

My sights are still set. This is BQ year!
