Starting on May 31, I will be posting every bit of training in the final 7 weeks before Vermont. I will also be posting possible race strategies that will help get me through the 100 mile ultramarathon.
This is possibly the most aggressive peak cycle that I have ever designed for a big race, including all of the Ironman races that I did.
How it plays out I don't know, but I have basically shut down everything else in my life to train heavy these next 7 weeks. I will be very interested to see what the outcome of this training can do.
One last thing. All the long runs that I'll be doing is actually more a mental exercise than a physical exercise. My weakness is to train my mind to be patient on these long runs so that I can stay patient in Vermont. It is there that I believe is my greatest weakness and it is there I will need to train.
I hope you can follow me these last 7 weeks and see whether this results in a success or failure.
The week starting May 31 starts it off. A very long run is scheduled for Saturday on the D & R Canal Towpath...
