Finished up two weeks today and generally speaking, my body has responded well. I still think my body rather than my mind will be the biggest challenge in the end- but so far, so good. I also put my first race on the calendar today, a five mile trail race on February 3 in Morristown.
Stats Update thru 2 weeks:
Miles: 28.49
Time: 4:21:16
Cities: 5
Weeks to go: 50
My review today is for a book - Running With the Buffaloes by Chris Lear. I found this on a Runner's World top books list two years ago and it's definitely a great read for anyone who's ever been on a track team before. For anyone who hasn't, it's still a great story with some incredible athletic feats woven in. I want to read it again but I'm afraid Adam Goucher's training being literally twice as fast as mine might get depressing! All kidding aside, nothing makes you want to get out and run more than a good running book. So whether you're trying to get out for your first jog of 2013 or you just need a little inspiration for your next workout, check this one out.
