The time over distance, speed/strength over LSD (long slow distance) and intensity of effort over “logging miles” has sunk in deeply now. In looking at January I could feel a few different ways: Down because my running miles were low (67) and almost 1/2 of a year ago. Excited because I had over 300 aerobic [...]
