Tip of the Day

In the art of running Pose, the runner is perfectly balanced on his or her support.  A direct line of the body goes from the head, through the shoulders and buttocks all the way to the ball of the foot that is contact with the ground.  The heel of the support leg is slightly higher than the ball of the foot and may even lightly touch the ground, but the weight of the body always rests only on the front part of the foot and not on the toes.

When you really believe in something, you see someone engaging in a wrong doing, or you know in your heart something is right. Fight for it.  It's important to stand up for what you believe is right, because in your heart, everyone truly knows the difference between right and wrong.

Today is a day of active recovery and if I don't burn out on 50 and 75 bag of mulch and rock and I don't collapse while doing it, like last time, I'll get a recovery ride in later. Yesterday my swim workout was a 4200.  Ikes, ran out of time, only had an hour, for a solid 2800.  400 swim/300 pull/200 breast/back and 100 IM. 9 x 200 Stairway to Heaven, or as Tom of Fountain of Youth then, laughs as everybody chimes in Hell.  Add a fast lenght every 200.

And I don't think it's the air quality.  At least, I'm not sure. It should be that I wake up and run 1.5 to 2 hours around the neighborhood, and then, take a shower at my own beautiful home.  Instead I recognized on my walk, it would be in my best interest to go somewhere else to run for cleaner air, and fresh water to bath in. Never take for granted the small things in life that you have, or we have. I left town at 7:45 and headed to the trail for

Let me count the ways. I have a new drill for mountain biking.  Coasting,  ride without pedaling only using your body to manuveur the bike.  Pedal as little as possible, practice turning through the apex, so don't be surprised if you see this on your workouts or in a tip of the day. I'm getting better and better at handling the bike and for that I am grateful. Today after work, I went for therapy at Horseshoe.  Nothing dramatic, just a once around, thought it would be an hour, not even close.  So

Last week was a fairly stressful week, water samples back, we'll leave that for a different kind of race. Work, closing, etc.  I decided on Friday I needed to "escape".  I told my environmental consultant if that didn't work I was going to get drunk.  She thought that was funny.  She also thought the toxins may better help me fight off the other toxins. So I escaped.  I worked and then I ran away to the North to Isle De Bois.  It's the very first ride I have done there since
