Speedwork should actually be in everyone's Training that is doing the comrades. You wont believe how much your running improves and your stamina as well. I usually do intensive speedwork in Sept and Oct for a Nov Qualifier. And there after only once a week.
Cant wait for these next couple of weeks to go by. This will be my last hard week with a 40km long run on the weekend. Then its tapering time. Im heading out to Durban on the 29th. Will be a Running/family holiday in one lol.
Yes it is. My wife read that little piece in Runners World, and couldn't agree more with Kelly Kidgell. She was laughing so hard, our neighbours prob heard her.
Do anyone know where I can get the book "Surviving the Runner". Its funny as hell. Want to buy it for my wife lol. Was looking on the authors website but its sold out.
Not a very good running week for me. Think I picked up a cold in Middelburg last weekend with that Ultra. It was freezing cold, and I only had my running vest on. And there are only a couple of hard weeks left to train hard. So P@ssed off.
I dont like the up runs. I am a much faster downhill runner. I did run my first Bill Rowan on the up run. But being away from the comrades scene such a long time, I will be happy to just finish below 9h. I actually enjoy my running again.
