Running and life have many parallels. The things runners do to improve and succeed are in many ways the same things we do to improve and succeed in the journey of life. This blog is a journal of my running life merged with my family life and with lessons learned along path of life sprinkled in. Enjoy.

Trying to Post Video Log With No Luck
I have spent the last week trying to put together a video log of my 31 mile long run last Saturday but have been having some issues with running my HD Flip Video in my movie making software. When I figure it out I will put it together and post it. I only have 3 weeks until AR50 day. I hope I am ready. I will do one more 20+ long run tomorrow then start my taper. Marilyn's youngest brother gets married tomorrow so I will have to squeeze it in between the wedding and the reception. I was going to put in a long one today but did not have time, I was only able to get in 10 miles, but I put in 2 -1mile 7:30 min/mile intervals. I plan on working in some hill and speed workouts during the first week of the taper period, this is suppose to help with endurance. I feel my base is really strong, I have put in hundreds of miles within my aerobic training heart rate zone (130-140 ppm) in the last 5 months so starting speed work is probably in order. This may be a little late to help much with AR50 but I did not want to start to early because I would have increased my chances of getting injured. From what I have researched, a good base is critical before starting a once a week speed workout. Hopefully this will pay off for the remaining races this year.
