What I consider as a normal training week. 10 hours. How I train every week during my off race season (November & December). Another week of normal next week. It has been hard to hit the pace I like to train at because of the heat. You can not walk as fast when your body is pumping blood to your skin to cool. Your leg muscles just don’t get enough blood. After two years of mild Oklahoma summers. This year has been much more normal. I don’t mind hot weather. I prefer hot to cold. Train hot, race cold. That is most likely exactly what I will get this fall. Hot training in Oklahoma. Cold race in Auckland. Perfect.

My weight, WOW. I have been eating watermelon every night. I love watermelon. Might have to adjust my diet sooner than I planned.
