@DavidDack Feel shit -> go for a run - > feel better.
Works every time.

@HankFrank Normally 10-12 weeks of disciplined eating and big training volume gets me where I want to be weight wise on race day.
3 weeks post race day and I’m back to square 1!

[Ryan @Ryanshhh]

@UltraRunner26 Peak week done!

[Ryan @Ryanshhh]

@DavidDack Currently 10 pairs somewhere in the rotation cycle.. 5 that I’d race in. 4 that I’d train in. 1 for gardening!

[Ryan @Ryanshhh]

@DavidDack Haven’t raced a half in a couple of years, but last full had a 1:15:30 first half (won’t talk about the second half though!)
Keen to set my sights and properly train for a half at some point soon and see what the body can do

[Ryan @Ryanshhh]

@Brady_H Some big efforts in there! I got a little silly for my Boston build and did 18 20mile+ over the 20 weeks.
Love a good long run 👍🏼

[Ryan @Ryanshhh]

@DavidDack Yeah, I think it balances it out well. I add mobility/core/stretching 5-6 days per week too and feel much better for it

[Ryan @Ryanshhh]

@DavidDack Serial overtrainer here. Rest days make me feel worse!

[Ryan @Ryanshhh]

@UltraRunner26 Gold Coast Marathon.
Nice flat/fast course!

[Ryan @Ryanshhh]

@UltraRunner26 April was taper/boston/recovery.
May we start to build again, next race early July

[Ryan @Ryanshhh]

@UltraRunner26 Boston in 5 days!

[Ryan @Ryanshhh]

@HankFrank I ran 3:58 and then said ‘fuck it I want to go sub 3’. Next marathon i worked my ass off and I ran 2:59. Then I said ‘fuck it, I want to go sub 2:40 within the next year’ next 3 races were 2:46, 2:40.01 then 2:38.
9 days until I hopefully hit my new goal at Boston!
Set them high

[Ryan @Ryanshhh]

@ronnieschaniel @tim_roozendaal Agree, I love just rolling the legs over for a few km after a big session knowing that the effort is done for the day and now you can just soak it in.
I normally feel worse mentally in the last stages of the warmup knowing what’s about to come!

[Ryan @Ryanshhh]

@UltraRunner26 Focus on volume + elevation the last week

[Ryan @Ryanshhh]

@UltraRunner26 Went longish for a Tuesday morning

[Ryan @Ryanshhh]

@stevemagness Was pretty spot on in my case. Nice work

[Ryan @Ryanshhh]

@samclementt Normally around 90km-100km between blocks just to keep the volume. When building I’ll get to 170-180km
This block started early December, peak in 4 weeks.
