I have my training down pretty good, but now I have to learn how to run the races. I want to hit the finish line completely spent/exhausted. But, I don't want to go out too fast, and burn out at the end before the finish line. LOL<BR/><BR/>I guess in time and with races under my belt I'll learn how to "know when to push myself". In this race, I sprinted the last 1/4 mile (I think?). I tried keeping my HR at about 80% throughout, but I don't think I did, cause I definitely think I could have run about 30 seconds faster each mile. I wanted to, but was afraid I wouldn't have enough for the end.<BR/><BR/>In time, as my brother gets more into his 'quicker' pace, I'll have him to follow, so that will help.<BR/><BR/>I don't know, I like how things are going. My trainings going well, now I just need to transform that to the races.LIrunner9https://www.blogger.com/profile/14473464766700712187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8183382227911247978.post-887527529683424622008-03-16T10:22:00.000-04:002008-03-16T10:22:00.000-04:00You look very strong and fresh, you could have run...You look very strong and fresh, you could have run another mile easily!
