I have much to work on after my two days at the Racewalk Clinic. I will start after my Centurion race in New Zealand. Now would not be the time to start changing a bunch of stuff. I did miss my long walk on Sunday. This close to my race it is better to be a little under done than over cooked. The big important mileage has already been walked. Taper continues.

My 40 mile walk on Saturday felt easy to me. I am much better prepared going into New Zealand than I have ever been before a Centurion race. A good place to be in. Excited to attend racewalk school this weekend. Any thing I can learn to get more speed out of the same effort will be a plus.
