Comments: I have a 2 mile timed run with the basketball team I coach coming up. After that, training will focus on a spring 50k. Plan of attack will be to run 5-3-1 for strength work with a high volume of body weight assistance work 2x per week. I will not be able to get many longer runs in during the week due to work, family, BSF and coaching so speed work and intervals will take place during the week and a long run in the weekends. Right now I am planning on the long runs always being over 90 minutes. I think I can fit this into my busy schedule but I am sure adjusting will
be needed.

This is a typical lunch these past two weeks. Very good and gives me great energy. Sits well to. Pasta w/ lots of veggies, water and butternut squash soup.
