--- Quote ---"Today was finally a breakthrough after four tough years. All the failures have kept me going. They fuel me.Anyone out there looking for the breakthrough, keep believing. Anything is possible if you stay healthy, positive and consistent. If you love to run, never give it up. Nothing great in this world happens being passive. Be aggressive and get after your dreams!"

he dropped a 14:18 5k (ties road PB) without doing much speed work (8 weeks post Boston).

pretty crazy.

4:30,4:32,4:44. Heat got to me the last mile but felt pretty strong throughout. Really pumped to run so fast after some big weeks and very little specific work just 8 weeks post Boston. Tied my 5k road PR on a slow course, pretty much solo in the heat. Just getting started, this is gonna be a good year!

what always stands out to me w/ these elites, is the SPM. they hit 12.5-13 mph and such at < 190 SPM, it's insane.

that's the key to eliteness right there.





also, my friend who i took that photo with a few weeks ago, dropped 17:04 after being injured for months. he's been cross training with "roller skis". he didn't even expect to run hard or drop a good time. he's gone under 17 once I think so, that's a great time coming off injury:

5:17, 5:38, 5:51

4:05 road mile, in the heat/humidity.

dude is on another level right now - and he's MARATHON TRAINING. wtf. crazy how for some people, that volume is really what they need. i mean this dude is PR'n mile, 5k, etc, and he's mostly doing marathon workouts/volume. bet he wishes he did this in college lol. now he's like 33.

he could probably sub4 a mile up north, especially on a track.
