it is so easy to get into a routine and forget about how rest periods, cross training, and mixing things up really do ENHANCE performance. I find it hard to deliniate “seasons” b/c while i do like to run races or, soon, hopefully get back to tri’s, i’m not training to win them, just do as best i can in the time i have available… maybe it’s just that i like to have something to look forward to i need to get on that and plan some for ’09!

I think because I"ve never been much of a racer, my running is pretty much the same year round. Now that I am actively working towards Boston, i can see that things will become more intense for a period with speed work, but once that is done I will just go back to a different kind of running rather than not running. So yes I guess I agree maintenance just means different... Amandas last blog post..Winding Down The Mad Body

Wow, that was perfect reading for me right now. Truly great advice. It does go back to that saying: You can have it all, just not at the same time. So true... Kara from MamaSweats last blog post..Did your kids exercise today?
