Another great week of workouts. Looking forward to my taper for the Cowtown 50k in two weeks. I have a good feeling toward this race. With a good taper I should have fresh legs and a new PR will be possible. Excited.

    Thanks Albin. I do all my training on the road around my home. The circle drive is all oiled and rock chipped. 8 tenths of a mile long. I use a method I call progressive overload for my speed training. I walk by feel. When I feel strong I walk faster and faster. When I feel tired a hold back. It has worked well for me in the past. It is always a good idea to listen to ones own body. Glad to hear you are walking. Best of luck with what ever walk you do. Rob

    Hi Rob,

    Nice improvement in your speed. Can’t remember if I asked you before. Do you only walk on a track, alternatives, especially the long walk(? Also, do you just walk faster, or is there some speed.work.you do? I have.signed up for Tim’s 6hr Coburg. Guess it will be not so good,. as I promised my son to walk.during the night from Friday to Saturday in there Relay for life, which is a fund raiser for cancer research.
