The Weather isn't here in New England yet, spring is however peaking her head around the corner. Hey Why not open up your Freshmen Collegiate year with a few records and now a world lead in the 400 Meters for women. For people like myself who are your average lover for the sport of running this is very exciting to watch. Leaves us with many questions now what can she do by the NCAA outdoors Championship in June ?
4 x 400 x 2 Miles (CORE)
Started the morning right with some Yoga and stretching. I must say this is the best feeling, I am waking up sore still from Monday's workout and the recovery run from Tuesday. I learned a valuable lessons on Monday. First lesson you are extremely out of shape, second lesson I have been stubborn and hardheaded, I always get hurt because I don't respect the process. I haven't ran in 20 years, it's going to take some time to get it back. Third Lesson is more than a reminder how close I am to the age of 40.
Yoga/Pilates and stretching have been saving me these mornings. I see how people get injured, foam roller x yoga have been my best friends, the soreness and tenderness has gotten way better and I am actually looking forward to running, once again I can't thank enough the running community and most important my wife on this long journey back to no man's land.
Dennis Sheppard said last week he enjoys running again, i agree that speaks to the soul. I am starting to get acquainted with concept of running and most important what type of runner do I want to be. In this begin stage of base building there is no character no special unique talent, all that is required is dedication, determination and discipline
