...Sounds like training for Eugene is going well! <br /><br />Louis Zamperini was at Menlo Park Presbyterian Church on Jan 21. I found out about it because one of my friends is somewhat associated with that Church. <br /><br />Thanks for B2B, we shall see how things go. I do love your slogan of Any day you can race is a great day =)<br /><br />Eventually when I'm back to running normal again we can meet up with Tricia for a run at Rancho. I haven't forgotten about that plan.Nellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11613262056157769496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1109090155728755589.post-10877370657089775692012-01-30T17:24:22.183-08:002012-01-30T17:24:22.183-08:00Thanks for the wetsuit thoughts.

Just cutting out deserts and limiting carbs after 7 at night might well be all you really need considering where you are and how much time you have. Good luck, and looking forward to following your progress.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05091364691248272512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1109090155728755589.post-69909038493388979812012-01-30T09:42:22.766-08:002012-01-30T09:42:22.766-08:00Awesome run volume!

Yeah, I think you'...Great job on the week :). <br />Yeah, I think you'll feel a lot better, and lighter, if you could maybe drop about 5-6 lbs for Eugene. Aim to dro .5 - .7 lbs/week and you'll be great. Lots easier to do than we think it is :).Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10174883718651790845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1109090155728755589.post-44678125634139228922012-01-30T06:36:18.074-08:002012-01-30T06:36:18.074-08:00Looks good.

I need to find a hill close to home to do midweek hill sprints -- they are on my schedule but I've opted for the fartlek workout instead as I've no nearby hill. So the past two Saturday's I've done my long run at Rancho to catch the hills. I think it makes the Saturday run a bit more challenging than it should be but there you go. I've looked at the elevation chart for Eugene and while not particularly scary, I still like the strength I get from hill work.<br /><br />P.S I'm glad you knew Romper Room - ha.Triciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14809744218455258079noreply@blogger.com
