AM - 8.4 miles. Workout at Liberty Park. Nothing too hard, just enough to keep the legs from getting flat. Warmed up 2 miles, then did 3 x 1 mile with an easy mile in between (full recovery is essential at this point... the last thing you want to do it wear yourself down even a fraction of a percent). Splits were 5:14, 5:07, 4:56. It was tough getting going on the first one especially, which I think was due to the fact that it was early and COLD!

The Training Wisdom of John Kellogg. This is an old thread from Letsrun that I don't remember ever reading. Its interesting that pretty much everything I believe about training is in these 2 pages. I guess I've picked up a lot from JK and the Brojos over the years. Not to mention that its all pretty much Lydiard-based. I wanted to share this because in 2 concise pages, it covers 98% of what you need to know about running fast. Print a copy. This is a case where its OK to kill a tree :-)

Jake, do you know anyone that has a commercial grade treadmill they want to get rid of for cheap....or for free?

Dale - Paul was selling one not too long ago.

Looks like you are in prime shape for a solid OQT.

Thanks for always passing along such good info!

Jake, Now I'm not sure about this but it is pretty suspicious to me that JK "Jake Kellogg" and JK "Jake Krong"... Just saying... It is a good read. I haven't read it all yet and as .pdf comes out to 13 pages total.

Ha! I was thinking the same thing.

Good luck in Philly this weekend! Get that OTQ and run well!
