"Monster Month: Septemeber"

Read an article in Runner's World about how some call September "Monster Month" with regards to the huge mileage that is laid down in foundation for October and November marathons.   The tips are to be careful to not push too hard and/or too fast and tire out/get injured etc.

Well Sept has been by far a big tough monstrous month of running and spinning.  I didn't think I could do said work but here were are.


25 Days working out,
370kms run (3 weeks had been at 100kms)
89 miles biking (well guestimated by Spinning) in 5 sesions

and feeling pretty good for the marathon coming up in 2 weeks


Now I have to figure out the best form of tapering.  :)

Hey

So I am starting a blog of my running adventures.  Some people have good blogs. I want to be on of them.


I'd love to one day add photos of some of my runs because as I go I find beautiful landscapes.  I think that's what brings me back.  To find new adventures and different challenges.


Anyway, about me:

I fit into the marathon runner category.  I've run 3 and will be doing my 4th soon.   I'd love to run Boston but I have lots to rant about that one day.   I'm also a big fan of amateur and professional sports, especially fellow Canadians.
