Sunday Afternoon Tid-Bits

Before I watch my beloved Patriots tonight, a few things are rattling around in my brain.

When you do long runs, remember, it is not the mileage that counts, it is the time spent running! Your heart and your lungs and your muscles cannot tell how many miles or kilometers or fathoms you have traveled. However, your body reacts to the length of the stresses inflicted upon it. Your body is a great clock, it is a horrible odometer. So, if you were hoping for ten miles, and you only got eight, it does not matter. What matters is the fact that you ran for 75-80 minutes. Time spent running is the important factor on LSD runs.

Monday is a no running day, a recovery day, for the distance kids. Our schedule is to lift weights with Coach Laster at 4:15. I will be in Coach Hawks room grading papers, but distance kids are not needed until 4:15, at the weight room.

Monday evening, i will post the winer of the Turkey Trot poll, as well as information pertaining to it.

Tuesday evening, I will post the Thanksgiving Break work-outs.
