Should it be four 13.3 mile runs or something like ten 5 mile runs? The training for the ten runs strung together seems easier but I am unsure.


from Twitter https://twitter.com/ewabbott

So I have decided that instead of treating this as one fifty mile race, I am going to break it into discreet parts and work that way. You should donate. If not to me, to @chrisGEPlot. https://t.co/pJKBIV9jhz

Runners is the 518: Yes, I know you are training for something important, like Boston in 8 weeks. That being said, the sidewalks being awful are not an excuse for you to run down the middle of New Scotland Ave during a Winter Weather Event. Asshat.
