I have been training. As you all know I have thrown the long slow run type training out the window and have adopted High intensity Crossfit Endurance style. Working out pretty good. training 3-4 times a week. Less time on the road, more time in the gym. I changed my running style to Pose Running. About 4 months ago I broke my toe. I hadn’t really ran anything longer than a few hundred meters since. Last week as per my training schedule I had a 5k time trial. I posted a 38:48 min time. considering I hadn’t run anywhere close to that distance in 4 months I was happy. This week, after a week of training in the gym and HIIT (high intensity interval training), I hit the road. I felt stronger, technique came together. I actually felt stronger the longer I ran. I posted a 32:30…can you say boom… pretty good after one week of training. Gave me momentum going into this week. I am going to train harder but not longer.
Also, I am using Paleo to fuel my training. Loving it and no Paleo isn’t the new Atkins. I am reading the book Paleo Diet for the Athlete very interesting and I haven’t felt better. The best fueling regiment I have ever used for training. I am looking forward to what next week has to offer.
