My goal is to break three hours in a marathon
The weather is perfect. The gods are shining on us.
Right now, after having had back surgery, I am finally back to running again.
As I've been able to once again gain the benefits of speed work, I'm enjoying my running more and more.
The potential elite runner must realize that hard means hard, easy means easy and they must patiently seek out what combinations work for them. They have to learn to be persistent and patient with their training and racing.
I admire runners older than I - they are now my heroes. I want to be like them as I grow older.
