Putting the Time In

Elevation Profile








When you train for the long stuff, it's about getting time in on your feet.  Anything you can do to increase that time, no matter how small, helps.

I was once told by a veteran adventure racer (Eco Challenge, Raid Gauloises...) that the trick to going long is to spend as much time on your feet as possible.  Get your body adapted to it.  Stand whenever you can, walk whenever you can and simply adapt to being on the move.

Today's run is a small one, but it's part of a larger puzzle, the one that will take me through what will most likely be the longest run I've ever done.
