12.13 3 miles easy
12.14 3 miles easy. I hate to take it easy, but this week is all about RECOVERY.
12.15 8 miles in 59 minutes.
12.16 9 miles in 67 minutes.
12.17 6 miles total. 2 miles warm up, then 3 by 600's with 200 recovery followed by one 200 with 200 recovery. 600's were in 1:49, 1:48, 1:50; 200 in 30. 2.25 cool down. This is a recovery week, so I only wanted to add a little speed into my week.
12.18 4 miles easy (28 minutes)
12.19 10 miles in 78 minutes. I did this up in Meredith and there were mountains everywhere, so this was a pretty solid run.
43 miles total
As a youth, I ran, yet I did not exist in a sense. 19 years passed. Today, I exist in one sense because I must run. Perhaps I run to escape the futility of my existence. Perhaps not. In either case, this blog, or whatever it is, will serve to chronicle my training as a runner, my development as a man, and ultimately my demise as a human, because all things pass, fade, retreat into the horizon--and while we run, as we run, the mirage that is the shimmering, glimmering future continues to assert itself just out of reach. And yet, as this picture up above connotes, it may still be beautiful. And so the question may be what is IT? What is it? What is IT?
