“Out of every one hundred men, ten shouldn’t even be there, eighty are just targets, nine are the real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, for they make the battle. Ah, but the one, one is a warrior, and he will bring the others back.” ~Heraclitus

EASY DAY PACE REMINDER (Mon if run, Wed, Thu, Sat): rule of thumb, on easy days run no faster than 2' slower than current 5k race pace!

Daily - 5 minute mindfulness
