RE: Point to Pinnacle - it begins!
Thanks for the music list MLCM and the info on your plans for this year. It's great news that your throwing your hat in for such a big challenge.
Just take it easy with the hill running and don't forget the 10% rule with regard to distance, speed and gradient. I was pretty reckless when it came to hill training in 2009 and just ran up the steepest, longest hill I could find as many times as I could manage. Result: 11 months (and counting) of plantar fasciitis and very sore metartarsals.
Most people are alot smarter than me and I know you've had to deal with many difficult issues in the past. But do look after yourself and remember the gradual, adaptive nature of what you're trying to achieve. That said, you've got a long run-in to the PtP and I really hope it goes well. I'll be ready with my incense and candles.
Regarding the music, I've never listened to music when running. It doesn't seem to hold much appeal. But I am starting to creep out for the odd short, slow jog. So I'm going to give it a go. Here's my first list which I've made deliberately old-skool, with the odd exception, and is listed in the correct order for a tempo run with warm-down.
1. The Ink In The Well : David Sylvian
2. B movie : Gil Scott Heron
3. Fly Like An Eagle : Steve Miller Band
4. Cloudbusting : Kate Bush
5. No Quarter : Led Zeplin
6. Mausam : Nitin Sawhney
7. White Room : Cream
8. Room To Move : John Mayall
9. He's Mistra Know-It-All : Stevie Wonder
10. Re: Stacks : Bon Iver
