First of all, Happy Birthday and New Year. I applaud your rigor in your workouts but even more, your diligence in recording them. I am curious if you always know the workout days ahead of time and if so, do you find it to be a plus or a minus?

Good luck with the new age group.

Rich,

Wow. The first comment on my blog. I don't know what to do....

Thanks for your thoughts. As you know, doing the events you and I do, it takes a lot of training rigor to excel. I don't even try to maintain it year in and year out, but a few years when I'm coming into a new age group seems to be okay.

My coach, Bob Bruce, since I don't train with him, sends me practices via email every week on Sunday. My routine, as you can see from the blog is Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday most weeks. Four days of hard practice is all I can handle. Any more and I start going down hill. I like getting the practices ahead of time so I can see what I'm in for that week.
