Im guessing thats from the same place as Ride lots Yeah, and I am adding that chapter along with swim lots, to the new edition. I figure if Blake can get in big workouts than I should beable to compare. Plus nobody cares at work if I skip out for a few hours to train. Gotta love the Military. lol... I'm not sure man, I wouldn't consider any of my workouts "big." You're a much faster runner than I am. I tend to get around pretty slowly.  Edited by Blagels 2008-09-11 10:37 PM |

Eventually I'd like to get up to 15-20 hours of training per week. That will likely take another year or two though. |

I agree with obsessive, but that's not a bad thing. |

Yeah, have definitely had my fair share of those, just this year alone. Nothing too debilitating yet though. (Knock on wood) |

What are you averaging now? If I start getting between 7 and 10 hours/week I think I can hold steady with that and be happy for awhile. |

Which in Colorado, that might be a lot during the winter. That is the plan. Which is why I already scheduled a Half marathon for Jan. That way I have a reason to keep the mileage up. I think I might see if I can find a full Marathon for Feb/March, just to keep things going. But first I need to make it through the Denver Marathon. |

Expert 1318 | Subject: RE: Whips, Cattle Prods & Tiaras (Four-Is-More Challenge) Running gets a bad rap, but I actually really like it. It's very relaxing for me. The marathon should be awesome though, Travis. You have to be totally psyched about it. |

The marathon should be awesome though, Travis. You have to be totally psyched about it. It goes both ways. Sometimes I am stoked, and other days I have to make myself go and get the miles. Mostly I just want to do better than I did last year for the Marine Corps Marathon. Thus far I am better trained, but I am dealing with altitude I didn't have last year, plus my left IT band has been acting funny in my left hip lately. I have had to really increase my stretching, and hold back on my longer runs more than I wanted to. |
