Calling all runners and running fans:

Today was a slow RECOVERY run from yesterdays last tempo run before LA. Pretty much my training is done for the La Marathon in approximately 18 days. What's done is done. Now its just a matter of running enough to maintain my fitness level up and start preparing mentally. The LA marathon is a physical as well as a mental game. The first part is done, now the second...well, I'm still working on it :)

Also, for all of those running fans out there of the great Ryan and Sara Hall, check out their official website for inspiration, running tips, and updates on their lives on the run. Great stuff they got going there!!!

The video below is an interesting one because of the no so obvious fact when training for a marathon or any other endurance race for that matter. People tend to think that your success of a given race has everything to do with the hard workouts that you put your body through during training. The point of this video is to highlight the importance of a recovery and how its equally as important as the hard training. Check it out and apply to your running. Perhaps here is the reason why you are not getting any faster...lol.....living our lifestyle on the run, R U ?
