December ('tis the season)

[Mid Life Crisis Marathon Man]

Having said that, over lunch I read an article by Andy Kirkpatrick ... Apparently one hour a day of really intensive training is all you need… Trouble is, by intensive, he means training that makes you want to puke.

Which could be why that particular man doesn't frequent these pages.

Last time I trained to the point of puking was 37 years ago. And yep, I still clearly remember it, which is why I haven't repeated the experience.

The thing about staying within your comfort zone is that it is, well, comfortable. Who doesn't like comfort?

But... we are still looking to improve our performance aren't we? Which means moving out of our current comfort zone to redefine a new and improved comfort zone... so whilst I am not planning to train until I puke, I do plan to push my boundaries somewhat.  Heck, it's what having a mid life crisis is all about... isn't it?    

Well, sure, if you're comfortable with that....
