If you’d like to be notified next time I write something, sign up for email alerts or subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for reading!

Made the [wise] decision to put Strendurance workouts on hold for at least a week until the Shamrock Marathon has been completed and my legs have recovered somewhat. At this […]


More Treadmill Strength Training And Another Strendurance Workout

Tonight’s 52 minute 10k Strength Builder workout went well, although I intentionally ran the 5 x 6 minutes repeats at a slightly less intensity than I probably could have managed.

I must admit I was a little light headed as I stepped off the treadmill, but soon recovered and decided to do my third Strendurance […]
