re: I just ran some sprints...

I average 5 miles per day during the week of running/walking. I’m pretty good.

I average 25ish miles per week running but its been some time since I've run full out. When's the last time you've done that, Boceephus?

Speaking personally, It's been a while since I've run full out. I'm sore and it will be worse tomorrow. I'm mid 40's. I may consider steroids or HGH if anyone wants to get me up to speed.

Absolutely. That’s the point of the shoes. Ground feel. Your feet were designed to feel the ground. It’s why they have the third most nerve endings on your body.

It’s taken me a while to get here. Even today, my feet are a little sore. 16 miles barefoot. But it’s strengthening my feet. I highly recommend reading the book Born to Run.

Part of my driveway is gravel. You weren’t designed to run with carbon plate shoes or pillows on your feet.

Full out? Hmmm. Maybe during flag football or softball, but that isn’t a constant thing like sprints. I couldn’t really tell you, TBH.

That’s pretty soft for Summer training.

That was just getting back started after the summer weight/workout program. We would come back early June and get back into shape, then do 2 weeks of two-a-days, then a week of three-a-days.

We took springs and summers to really hit the weight room. This was just the start of the mandatory conditioning before preseason camp. It got way tougher, but being "out of shape" from the final spring practices it really, really sucked to get started again.

In baseball, we had to run foul poles.

Right there with you. We always had football spring training during baseball season. For some reason that I forget now, the baseball coach was pissed about something and made us run poles after football and baseball practice (for those that played both) until every single person puked.

One of our guys was a cross country runner as well and he made everyone else suffer until he finally puked a.little after 9pm. Had to be one of the worst conditioning/punishment experiences I ever had playing sports.

Yoga. Been doing DDP Yoga for a few years

Ive been lifting weights and doing cardio religiously for two years. I started yoga 6 months ago and the difference it has made in that short time is mind-blowing. I can do things athletically that I couldn't do at 30.

I run flat out at least once a week. Usually hill repeats at HR 186+. Again, I’ll be 49 soon.

I’ve seen Aubie 96.


He looks like a wirey little bastard.

My "flat out" speed was always a LSD pace

I think Jang was talking about LSD earlier tonight

Long slow distance is not in the context of what we are talking about. If your LSD heart rate is 180+ you are an alien. Give me some of those drugs.
