Total Distance

13.00

So yesterday was a total bust... I was helping my husband with project at our oldest daughters house. My shin had been bugging and I wasn't sure running the roads was such a good idea.
My friend Anthony had told me they would be running Sunday so I met up with them and we ran Mueller's Canyon, this was 61/2 miles up then back down. I had a great time but... I hate so much being the slowest of the group. Aghhh!!! It sucks so much !!!

I was happy that I didn't fall or have any major trouble besides being slow.

You're in good company. It's one of the reasons I run alone. Sometimes I wonder if I have a single fast-twitch muscle in my whole body.

How do you get them??? Is this one of those things that you are either born with or is it something you can develop? And if I can develop them... should I have done it when I was younger...because right now it feel like I'm getting slower and slower.

I believe they can be developed somewhat through speedwork and plyometrics. I'll let you know if I ever see any on me. ;)

There's no shame in being slow. We're all blessed to be able to run, whatever the pace. Of course I say that, but would like to get faster myself. I'm just preaching to myself.
