“Trust in your training and make it happen” Peter Vidmar Welcome to the Sensory Strides podcast. Observations of the world through activity, reading, listening, and everything else. I don’t normally look ahead in the training schedule more than a week. I figure there isn’t anything I can do about it and too many things can change if planning more than a week ahead. However, this week I had a 12 mile run and a 50 mile bike ride. I was exhausted at the end of the week. Since these distances are close to race distance, I was curious if they were the longest training distances. I thought they might not be because the race is still fairly far out to have the longest training segments. In looking at the plan, I was right. This week my long run is 13 miles and my bike is 55 miles and next week the run is 14 miles and the bike is 60 miles. After that is starts going back down again. I listen to lots of podcasts to get tips and tricks for training and planning for the race. A couple of weeks ago, Endurance Hour was looking for questions regarding the bike portion. I emailed and asked my question about increasing speed. They actually responded to my question during the show. Her suggestions mimic my training plan, but reinforced I am doing the right things and need to really focus on the nuances during training as they are important. I sent a thank you and let her know her reply gave me the boost I needed to double down and keep going with what I am doing. They read my response on the next show. As Mac Barron would say “double name endorphins”! Thanks for joining me this week. Don't forget to stop and smell the roses. Find us on social media!
