To all my fellow runners…don’t forget to set your Strava clocks back to zero at midnight. πŸ•›

The journey begins anew. πŸƒπŸ»

Every day you train you are putting pennies in the bank. We aren't just adding to the bank with runs, but with recovery, sleep, nutrition, mobility, etc. Think in terms of making those deposits, and on race day you can cash in.

Well there you go. Calf held up. Somewhat tight toward the end, but no snap, crackle or pop. πŸ˜¬πŸ™Œ

It is always a balance. Long Haul 100 is in 3 weeks and I am dealing with a calf strain. Tomorrow I have a bigger run on tap to see how it responds. πŸ™

In the meantime, I will just keep watching my feet.

πŸ’―πŸ’― The problem for too many of us is that we enter into these types of discussions trying to impress upon others what we know or think, instead of being open, listening, and learning.

I tell anyone who says "I hate running/jogging" that they are going too fast

Be able to have a full conversation. If that requires walking, then that's where you're at.

When people recommend zone 2 training for general population, for most it should mean go on a walk

Had a 5 mile run to do, so I joined in with a local 10k road race instead. Been a while since I did one of these. So many people. I almost enjoyed. Alright, I did.

It’s the type of punishment I needed since I didn’t get into Western States yesterday.

There are definitely a lot of people qualifying. They filled out the first 12 slots of the waitlist with runners who had 128 tickets. I think that was a good thing.

Well… time to put together the 2025 calendar continuing the journey to get another qualifier for Westerm states. Don’t mind me as I go drown my sorrows.

Congrats to everyone that did get in. Seriously! So awesome.

I am beginning to put my race schedule together for next year. Currently I have the Long Haul 100 in January that I am signed up for.

After I hear on Saturday about Western States, I will put the rest together.

Looking for ideas. What are you looking at?

Was messaging with a runner that I coach and she had to cut a run short because of a car that kept circling back by her. Sucks for my female friends that have to worry about dangers like that. Creeps are going to creep I guess. But geez.

Anyone relate?

2 - you have to keep repeating that scenario for months leading up to the race to explain all the training. On the other side, run the 100 miler and you are done explaining in less than 30 hours… except for all the celebrating that follows by them when they tell everyone they know what you did. πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ
