Following a well-designed training program makes all the difference! This program will peak with 10/20 back-to-backs (twice) before taper!<br /><br />Teniah,<br />This is a tough program, but a really good program. It pushes to the max, and then gives just enough recovery just when it's needed, and then pushes again! Theory is that doing 26+ in back-to-back combinations simulates the marathon distance without having to run over 20 at a time. I suspect that the actual marathon will be easier than the 10 and 20 consecutive day training!Vernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15815629682873183986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2127852782723349426.post-55814315503635016192010-02-15T18:25:02.546-06:002010-02-15T18:25:02.546-06:00You are doing an amazing job, and it's so cool...You are doing an amazing job, and it's so cool to hear that the training program is working so well! keep up the great work, and you will definitely be ready come race day!Teniah Ashlynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00716858290182211551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2127852782723349426.post-15618060940720651402010-02-15T17:31:37.148-06:002010-02-15T17:31:37.148-06:00Wow...that's impressive!
