yep. trail would be harder. a road is constant. Trail...you turn, hills, valleys, obsticles, etc.

Just hit the black top..besides...that's what you will be racing on, so prep for how you will race.

thats where our cardio is great for getting ready for hunting, but when u are on a tread mill, you dont have any fallen trees to climb over or under and no uneven trails, or slippery surfaces. nothing like twisting your ankle a time or two just to make the experience alittle better. good luck on your training.

Having done both, I can say (for me) that trails are harder.

No I haven't. I've gone on hikes through the woods, but that's about it. And one 5K race on a trail.

what would be some good ways for me to train for the trail run (other than running trails) the race is a good ways from here, so going there to run isn't a great option at this point...would varying my incline help some? Extra calf work maybe? stair stepper?

i think maybe if you just put some rocks in your shoes and run on the road it might be like the real thing.

ok...if I put rocks in my shoes I would be crabby, and if Cody EVER hit me on purpose with a tree branch, he had better hope I don't find a BIGGER tree branch



did 30m on eliptical tonight, 2.2 miles, varied resistance and incline....had fun

Nice job on the kickbacks?

Have you decided how you're going to train for the run yet? Do you have any trails close to you?

I was so tired that I had trouble sleeping....ever had that happen? I've had trouble sleeping this week because they moved Cody to 3rd shift so when he got home at 7a.m I finally though I'd get some sleep....the damn woman in the apartment above us started fucking vacuuming at 7:30 a.m.... so I didn't get to sleep until a little after 8, got up at 12 to go get a haircut...yeah...you could say I'm crabby....



legs!
short and sweet until my trail run is over...

hypers 30x6, 35x5, x5
hack squats 90x6, 100x6, 110x6
DB SLDL 40x6, 45x4, x3
HS calf raises 70x6 (way too light) 120x6, 130x3
kneeling cable crunches 100x6, 110x6, 120x5

no time for cardio AGAIN will try to get to it tonight, may also do some more abs, since they are the only thing that isn't sore today...I'm still sore from my chest workout this week!

got my run in today...2 miles, 23:35 very proud of this time

following a routine from runnersworld...your first day running every week, you do your full mileage 3.1 miles for me(or more towards the end) then during the week, you run 2 more days, 2 miles each day...then in theory your all pumped up and ready to run the 3.1 miles again the following week....we shall see!

after a day like what u had i think i would have drank myself to sleep with a little "jose" and then after i got up i would have taken one vacuum cleaner and disposed of it up someones ass.

running sure is fun when u can get into it. katt and i do a 10k run every once in awhile. it is the nations biggest open run. usually about 50-60 thousand people doing it, so when we do our outdoor training i really like it. but we havent done it for a couple of years, it always takes place at the same time as the body building com. that we like going tol

thanks!! I like to run occassionally...I have to have something to challenge me, and I am definetly NOT a natural runner, so having a 5k or something to look forward to gives me the drive to do it.... (there's another one coming up in Jan. 5 miler this time...we will see how this 5k does for me first though! )

Nice work in here, B. Do you have a target time for this run?
