Another installment of Three Things Thursday. It's hard to come up with three things...
Quotes:
They can be as thought provoking as they are annoying.
This Runner’s World quote fanned a thought that sparked last
night when I put together my training plan for my next Ultra.
Plans:
Well shit, that’s all summer and some long runs, when will I bike? Maybe a fall Ultra isn’t where it’s at?
Reality:
Sincerely,

I like this post! I agree with all 3 precepts (except for biking). Don't hate on the running so much during that training plan and monster long runs. What better way to spend the summer?
ReplyDeleteI promise I won't hate on the monster long runs (or at least articulate my hatred), because there is an ultimate goal it will be ok. A better way to spend the summer would include biking or kayaking on brewery tours, a pipe dream.... plus there is always beer in the shower and iced armpit towels at the end of a long summer run, right?
DeleteI say go for it! I however am still a one and done on the marathon... the half just suits me better, and the distance for training works better for me. Although in the back of my head I am still considering another marathon in the future. I love all the quotes.
