Last couple of weeks, I did not made any updates to this
blog. Mainly due to a shift of priorities. My project in the Bay area resulted
in two 5+ hour flights per week. Adding a 3 hour time zone difference and an
interesting but challenging project content and scope resulted in 11+ hour
working days on average. Hopefully, my regular Twitter messages did give you an
idea what I was doing from a workout perspective.
Don`t get me wrong. The training volume went slightly down, the intensity went up, the overall confidence level is increasing consistently. In the Bay area, I was lucky to find 2 high schools in the close San Jose region that opened up their tracks for me. Every track workout was executed after 9 PM, most of them even later than 9:30PM. I couldn`t care less. As long as I could execute them and getting my body prepared prior to the workout.
There are still 4 more weeks to turn the current shape into race shape. As from
the National Championships, I will be racing for 3 weeks in Belgium and the
Netherlands. Based on the results of these limited number of ‘chances’, we will
decide to continue racing in the US as well after our return to Charlotte.
The current calendar does not contain any ‘test’ races to check
the current shape and feeling. This will be a whole new concept to me. Fingers
crossed, I look forward to kick some xxx!
