Mid week Post

I've now run for 4 days in a row, including my long run on Sunday. If I'm lucky I'll manage to make a total of six days in a row, with a speed interval tomorrow and an easy run on Friday. Also on Friday I'm gonna do a test run at the gym with my new trail shoes, help break them in a bit before I try to take them off road, so to speak. I attribute much of my recently found strength to getting a good boost of protein right after I finish my runs. Hopefully my energy levels will keep up as well.

For this weekend's run I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the weather will be nice, because if it is I'll haul out to Enumclaw early in the morning for a run in the country. My father already offered to follow me on his bicycle for company, and I think I've convinced my wife to get up early with me, throw her bike in the car, and tag along as well. I could have quite the entourage following me if this keeps up!

Finally, I also signed up for membership to the American Trail Running Association, since it comes with subscriptions to both Running Times and Trail Runner, as well as a discount to Ultrarunning Magazine. Not that I'll be renewing my membership to that one any time soon; until I've successfully completed an ultra, I'm not worthy to look at its hallowed black and white pages.

Alright, signing out.
