I know that NS is a very active community, and there are many athletes that excel in different sports on top of skiing. I thought that it might be a cool idea to have a place for everybody to share their workouts or training. I'm a runner and have been keeping logs on my training for the past 5 years or so, and I'm sure there are plenty of other athletes doing similar things for other activities.
Whether you're a casual or competitive athlete, this would be a great place to claim a good workout, vent about a shitty workout, and motivate each other. Any bikers, swimmers, runners post up your workouts. If you're lifting for football, cross training for soccer, or going for a hike get in here too. Really anything flies, just a place to share, keep track of, and see how fit Newschoolers really is.
So just post up what your workout was, how it went. And maybe any short or long term goals you might have.
So to start out, today I ran 6.52 miles in 42:23. Felt pretty good. It was hot, but I was running along Lake Ontario so there was a nice breeze to keep me somewhat cool. After a few setbacks it feels good to get a decent paced run over 6 miles to kick of summer training.
Overall goals: get fit over the next 6 months and shoot for personal bests in the 5k and 10k. Immediate goal: get back in shape and train consistently after a long nagging hamstring injury.
