I said this yesterday, but the consistency and the improvement that I am seeing week to week at these Red Rocks work-outs is astounding! Athletes are getting up and over more and more stairs, they are using better form doing it, and they still have enough energy and fortitude to do the other parts of the workouts. The girls did two sets of jailbreaks, one athlete not only got to the top, but then did the ladder the whole way down again, and we are seeing athletes getting to the top consistently week after week. This is great, and that's why I am thinking that this group is the best in the three years we have done Red Rocks. Congratulations!

And a big shout out to Coach Hawk for coming out, hopefully we see him next week!!

Next set of work-outs is Thursday night for the mile TT, to see how we have improved since that last mile TT a month ago. Then, some competitive speedball! (I am going to dominate at speedball.) Even though I have yet to change it in the weekly workouts sidebar, we will be meeting at my place on Saturday, 7:00 am, to run down to Englewood Dam and do a few Texas miles along the top of the dam. Your Texas mile times will be based off of your new mile TT time, so be ready to run fast Thursday night. No trips to Waterworld!!!

Last but not least, I am "published"! My article I wrote for Fasterskier.com can be found here. The article is about running vs. skiing training, and there are some great pics trying to illustrate what I'm talking about. Full disclosure: Fasterskier.com is a Nordic skiing website that is run by my old college roommate, Matt Voisin, and he asked me to write an article. I just hope he does not ask me for that money I owe him from senior year! :) :)

P.S. I am reading some dyestat message boards. Just be careful what you are saying on those things, your words never really go away.
