@JK reckon it's cool to be able to look back over previous training logs. When you can do that over several years you can really see progress, or how your approach to training has changed.
lol you don't have any issues on the dedication front, I consider you to be our pace setter... In my mind you are running 4min kays, while the rest of us are a wee bit more spread out in the pack!!
Then there are our sleeper agents who pop up to let us know about a recent marathon or epic cycle race
sometimes I use other names for those guys ha haCan't recall if you mentioned any specific goals for training this year? more of the same? Training for the Blues 2019 squad perhaps?!
-
Well I think my training has hardly changed! Its all just part of life now for me and one of the reasons I get up each day.
No real goals this year, just to stay fit which will allow me to get the most out of life. Wife has signed up for a half marathon later this year so might have to do some running with her.
