AM-Long run for 22 miles. No accurate splits.. Sandy-JRT-Murray-Millcreek-Cottonwood Heights-Ft Union-Midvale-Sandy-Home! Easy-medium effort with last 4 miles medium-hard. I needed to just run and enjoy the scenery for a change. PM-Nah.. That's enough for today:) Moving to more mileage next week with more of a focus on easy aerobic miles and less AT work but also with some longer and faster mile repeats just to change the empahasis and stimulus pattern. I find that these occasional change-ups keep the body constantly challenged and adapting when I do this from time to time. It might make me flat for a while but it's like Lydiard used to say; "You will be running slower in the beginning when they are running faster, but in the end you will gain victory when the really important competition comes later on." I can only hope that maybe this will prove out for me eventually. It would be nice to win again for once:)
