Things are not going well. \u00a0The mileage is long, the timing is off, and the scale? \u00a0The scale moans in defeat as the weight weighs ever heavier.<\/p>\n

I did ultimately buy a copy of “Advanced Marathoning” from eBay. \u00a0It’s a first edition, originally released in 2001 and while a second edition exists I assumed the bulk of the info and strategies would still be applicable.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I’ve read the introductory chapter though and I’m not sure this is quite right for me. \u00a0While I’m fully in favor of a more scientific approach to the moonshot…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I’m oddly uninspired by the discussion over the timing of the training. \u00a0It makes sense, to be sure. \u00a0Recovery and structured push-pull of exercise and cross training, coupled with speed work has been\u00a0my general plan anyway.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And yet, this phrasing has me… how best to phrase this without coming off as a complete loon… this phrasing has me wondering if I don’t need an Advanced Marathoning text for the Excessive Runner.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And so I’m debating another book buy. \u00a0Runner’s World sent me a newsletter recently that included a shill for this book… and it was effective in its promotion.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I’ve found myself wondering if maybe this isn’t the one to base my moonshot strategy upon. \u00a0I need to come up with a plan soon, though. \u00a0The \u00a0launch date is set and is an immovable object; I need to become an unstoppable force yet feel all-too-stoppable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
