Work Load...

I have had a few emails of late asking why I have been an absent blogger. Unfortunately, not being the young wombat that I used to be, and the fact that work has been extremely busy over the last many months, Blogging has taken a back seat.

Rest assured though the wombat is still slogging on, getting out there every day, doing a bit of group coaching, as well as looking after a young wombat who is making very solid progress as a runner. In fact a recent trip to 'Falls' indicated that he is keen and eager and more importantly, switched on to learning his craft as a distance runner.

I will endeavor to be a little more regular and keep those of you who follow a little more in the loop to my travels and progress as a wombat warrior and a coach ... In the mean time

PS A quick shout out to OTFBD, remember mate " On foot in front of the other in rapid success is what running is all about., the good guys just do it faster. More importantly every day matters but even more importance enjoy your journey.....

Patience

Never rush improvement when it comes to distance running. Distance running is a sport that takes a very long time to become good at. That means good at in terms of your own fitness, abilities and finding your level.

You cant cram distance running. Running three times on one day and then missing the next three is not the way to improve. You are better off starting with small steps and running a little bit every day, regardless of whether that is 400m or 5 miles.

Remember , steady steady wins the race.
