It's feeling more like spring!

Happy April fools day!!... The weather is looking great for this weekend and hopefully I'll be able to get out for a bike ride. I'm hoping to ride the 50mile route Saturday and I will video the route as I go along and post it later. In the mean time I went out to check my pond and pond fish, to see if my fishy's are still alive under the ice, check it out......

Ultra 50 mile training plan

Here is a training plan Catherine Harding made up for me to follow which she guarantees will help me complete my attempt of the 50 mile run we are planning May 7Th. ...As I see it, it is a good plan to follow, Will I follow it? probably not, but I will use it as a guide line of what I should be doing. My problem is I just can't do all that running with my foot and knees hurting as much as they do, So I will just continue on with my "less is more" training plan in which I will do moderate running over the next 5-6 weeks increasing my distance to 20- 30 km as my longest Sunday run, some interval runs throughout the week for cardio as well as some swimming for cardio and weights for strength, and if all goes well I should have no problem finishing the 50 miler May7 TH Mind you, it won't be a speedy 50 miler, but I will do the distance just the same before the day is done! :)

Thanks for the training plan Catherine, I do appreciate it! :)
