Digits: 4/30 MAF Test and April Totals

April 30, 2017

Second time’s a charm. So I headed over to my local track yesterday morning to get in my MAF test and I notice a sign for something called the Unionville Invitational.  There are a couple buses with kids disembarking and several pavilions set up.  I start my warm-up and it didn’t take too long to…

Maintaining or Building?

April 25, 2017

I think my body is messing with me.  Or mocking me.  Or quite possibly both. So my last post was all about how I’m not in a training cycle.  That I’m just trying to maintain the endurance that was built up over the spring.  Well after this morning’s run, I’m not sure if that’s necessarily…

Old Dominion 100 Maintaining Update

April 22, 2017

I’ve decided that I’m not in a training cycle so much as I am in a maintaining cycle.  I spent 5 months building for Umstead and was probably in my best physical/endurance shape heading into it.  It would be great to take a step up from there, but the timing is a little tricky with…

Head Games

April 17, 2017

I think I’m pre-injured. Recovering from Umstead is starting to feel like I normally do during my tapers.  I’m not injured, but my legs just don’t seem to feel right.  Yes, I know.  They call this recovery for a reason, but I got back to 95% or so within 4 or 5 days (i.e. really…

Old Dominion 100 Mile Training Plan

April 9, 2017

The timing of my three 100-milers this year (4/1, 6/3, 8/12) doesn’t really give me whole lot of time to train in between each one.  Especially, since I’ll need a portion of that time to recover from the prior race.  So I’ll need to be a little creative in my running over the next 8…

Project 14Forty: Success!

April 3, 2017

Total time: 22:07:59 It’s going to take me quite a while to distill my thoughts into a race report so don’t expect it until late this week at the earliest.  All I can say now is that it’s rare in life for something to meet your wildest dreams, but this race came extremely close.
