The beat goes on.

October 6th and 7th

 

Thursday

Tried to jog at practice today.   Still sore.  Continuing to work on eccentric calf races.

Friday

One mile at Holmdel park.  Still sore.      Thirty minutes in the pool, swimming.and running.  2 ×15 eccentric

It has been difficult these past few weeks to write an enthusiastic blog while I am unable to complete running workouts.  No inspirational songs or quotes come to mind these days.  I remind myself that I write this blog primarily a log of my training for myself.  But, to my friends and loyal readers, who truly make these project a joy for me, promise to limit the whining and blog more upbeat stuff.

How about this one?
