Faster or Farther

     My friend Cameron recently completed the Half Marathon she was training for.  She went eight minutes faster than her previous best, on an off-road course no less (which is slower than running on pavement).  The thing that was most exciting though is that she did it with no shin pain.  Amazing what a few small changes to the process can yield.   

     After the race we started talking about what she wanted to set her sights on next.  The question was whether to keep training for Half Marathons or to stretch it out a bit more and train for a Full Marathon.  Going forward it's a question of whether she wants to go faster or farther.  What's excellent is she can train confident in the knowledge that there is a process for either goal.  A good process will carry you forward.  Semper Porro.
