AM - 7 miles. Treadmill. 3 up, 4 mile AT Progression (1%) - 5:30, 5:20, 5:10, 5:00. Then hit the "cooldown" button which almost immediately went to 3.2 mph and I walked for 4 minutes. Too many black ice spots on the roads this morning to do anything faster outside.

PM - 6 miles. Treadmill. 3 up, 3 mile AT Progression (1%) - 5:30, 5:20, 5:10. Another cooldown button walk-a-thon to cap it off. Too much fun this morning to pass up a chance to do this again. This time my iPod was dead, adding to the excitement.

If Canova posted on FRB, he would probably call this the worst special block he's ever seen :-)

3.2 is a fast walk. I am only up to a 1.9.

What's a Canova :)

Vern Gambetta stole your blog title for his January 8 post.

Canova is what you need to learn to run the marathon good.

Here's a picture of him coaching:

Rob - I like almost everything Vern posts... and that one especially.

You haven't found the secret treadmills? I think every gym must have at least one ungoverned one. I usually have to fight an extreme incline walker to get it though.

What an exciting day! Mental toughness workouts are always fun.
