Running Intelligently

I'm presently visiting my folks in Ashland Ohio. Please make sure you are giving yourself recovery runs between work days. If you allow your pulse to go over 150 beats per minute you are no longer having a recovery day. If you must allow others to go a head of you then do so. It is better to run smart now and still be in the race later in the season.The key is to check your pulse enough that you become tuned in to what a 150 pulse feels like. It will not make you a better runner to work hard every day. Any joint pain requires a day off. Blisters deal with them, but don't allow them to force you to put too much weight on one foot. Now is a good time to get new shoes at South Sound Running.
Stay tuned for more reports from Ohio.
