Note
Didn't really train this winter. Have been trying to get back into running shape since mid-March, and am finally at the point where I am ready to start seriously training for the summer.
It has been a long journey the last couple of years, with going to Australia, my foot injury, getting made redundant, and now working a series of temporary contracts back in Alberta, but my life is finally starting to stabilize.
Unfortunately this training log is going to be quite boring. I am trying a highly experimental training program that I conceived last fall. A big part of my goal setting includes improved results at big North American races. Hopefully I can make it to COCs/NAOCs this year, but it depends on my work schedule. As a result of this, I am going to leave details of my training sparse. I can see 4 possible outcomes:
1. I will be a podium threat in specific disciplines
2. I will get injured
3. I will give up on my training in my next stint up in Fort McMurray
4. The training will be completely ineffective
If the outcome is 1, I don't want to reveal my training secrets to my competitors. I won't really have a good idea for another 3 months or so (ie. COCs at the earliest).
