Hitting your Pace

I run a comfortable 6:30 – 7:00 per km pace. I vary between it, sometimes going lower, sometimes higher (depending on where I am in the run), but generally I’m there in that bracket. The only way it will improve is if each day I show up (giving space for rest days) and work each day to shave off a second here, a second there. The goal is to get below 6 mins consistently, and at first I thought that was a goal that could be done in 2 – 3 months, but I was properly corrected – by my

Various Ideas

Take all your ideas. Write them down. Order them. Prioritize what matters to you. Put them front and center in your face. Pick one. And ship. (Don’t stop at putting them in your face, this is the last step before it becomes real, where many stop, pick and go).
