After running everyday straight for a year and just
completing the Ice Age 50 mile run, I've decided to get back to the roots of
running.
My last 15 years of running have been chock full of training
plans and ultra focused running (every run propelled to run ultra-marathons).
So now it's time to stop worrying about the miles, and
experiment with the run itself. I do want to focus on speed, but at a pure
simplistic level. Maybe, just learning to run a mile fast. Ultras will still be
my first and enduring love, but this blog will help me concentrate on keeping
the run pure.
I'm going to keep the posts short and simple. I also ask for
your opinions and ideas, criticisms and high fives.
Honesty will be key.
Today: 4 miles at an unknown pace. Finished with 5x30sec
strides.
We are visiting friends in Long Island, so I didn't know the
exact mileage, but based it loosely on a 8 minute mile.
How do you keep your running pure and simple?
