August 1 & 2,  Monday and Tuesday

It wasn’t a totally lost July. There was that National Record in the 4x800m relay. That was fun. The Big Bang Mile was a little below expectations. But I did finish second in my age group again. The main thing was that it was difficult to train because of the excessive heat and some aches in my right right knee.

August has started off in a more positive in vain. Yesterday I woke early and ran 40 minutes in 100% humidity.  Today I spent 77 minutes in motion on the cinder track. That included a non stop 30 minute segment of My Modified Fartlek.  (That consists of 30 second jog, 30 second run and 30 second walk; repeat.)  It felt like a quality workout!  It’s cross country  training time.  And more consistent blog posts……
