TRACK!

It's been a while since my last entry as there hasn't actually been all that much to report. Strangely enough, after bragging on my last entry about being injury free, I pulled my calf in what was to be the last hard workout before the Lung Run. I ended up taking about a week off, and needless to say, decided that 5K road race was not worth risking my season over. There are a few other options to choose from for my season debut, but I'm starting to lean towards a 3K at the Moonlight Meet at Saint Mary's on May 11th. I haven't raced a 3K since 2003, so it should be interesting.

A race? Really?

Remember when I said I was going to update this every week? Yeah, so do I. I suppose it has been a while! My training has actually been going very well. I've had some really good tempo runs and a few decent interval workouts that would all indicate that I should be able to race fairly well by this summer. I've been in the Saucony Triumph 7s, and I couldn't be happier. I've been putting in a decent amount of volume, more than I have since the fall of 2006 (my last cross country season) and other than some tightness here and there, I have had no real pain.
