Track Highlights
Emma running her first ever track 3000m. A good time too, running by herself, and in very hot conditions.
Colin running second in the Pennington race, again to "newcomer" Bruce Graham, as happened in the 3000m. Could be an up-hill battle to take the series from here, but I know Colin will patiently persist!
Blog enhancement
I have completed a little project to add "no frills tabs” above the posts, "Who we are", "Where we train" etc. This reduces the number of things down the right-hand side bar. And makes the good stuff easier to access.
Tor den Tålmodige – this article just has to inspire everyone over 50!
From the article:
Secret #1: The guy really loves to run, pure and simple.
Secret # 2: "I always listen to my body. If I feel good, I run. If I am tired, I rest. Also, if I have to paint the house or work in the garden."
Secret #3: Train in a place where the land is brutal but beautiful. The terrain strengthens you heart and legs. The place strengthens your soul. You'll need both to win.
Secret # 4: "I have learned this much. Races are won in the weeks and months of training before. I don't worry about pre-race routines."
Secret # 5: If the training program is working, don't fix it! Appreciate the process and press on.
