April 19th & 20th

My new training motto……….

” The only way to become a MONSTA is to train like a MONSTA.” ?

Wednesday –  A good day of work with my new commitment to serious training. I was in motion for 100 minutes with 45 minutes of biking , 35 minutes in the pool swimming  and running, plus 20 minutes in the weight room.

Thursday – While aggressively and  proactively treating for plantar fasciitis, I headed to the cinder track for a test workout day. After a considerable amount of walking, jogging and stretching, I decided to attempt some 200m pickups which I have measured out on the 800m track. My goal was to stay within the one-minute range per each 200m effort while maintaining a short quick stride. I managed to complete 8 x 200m all below 1 minute, which is an 8 minute per mile pace.  My legs and breathing were fine.  The foot ached most of the way, but the discomfort remained constant.  (A MONSTA  fears no pain.) That was the first real running workout I accomplished in a few weeks, and it felt very good!
