An important piece in building endurance

This morning I did a run at George Westinghouse College Prep track, which is an open track to the East Garfield Park neighborhood. For my run I did 2 laps around the track, then kicked it up a notch on the final two laps, which ended up being 1 Mile. Once I completed the run I did short 100 meter sprints and slow jogs back-and-forth from each post. This portion of the run I enjoyed because the turf is so much softer than the rubber pavement on the track. Other than the presence of headwinds on certain sides of the track, I felt great overall and ready to kick it up a notch going into my marathon training. The one final thing I need to incorporate into my training to make it complete is speed workouts which are a very important piece in building endurance.

    • They have been good these past weeks. In fact, all of my writings were submitted on Monday morning. I just submitted one today which I’m hoping that it gets published Saturday.

    • I have three waiting to be approved as I share this. I’m expecting them to be approved tomorrow before I wake up. Normally I’m sharing them on social media before I get out of bed to start my day.

    • Now that you have mentioned that, I see. It helps my patience knowing that they are trying to fix something instead of just ignoring my unpublished posts. I have two in the chute that may be published Friday morning.

    • Everything that I had submitted this past week, and weekend have been published. I’m normally still asleep when I check to see if everything has been published. I manage to share my posts on social media then fall back asleep, lol.

    • I would imagine that I will be one to receive one then because I average atleast 3 articles a week. And I’m pretty hefty with sharing things on social media to promote the articles, as well as Virily.

    • There are times when i feel froggy and put out 5 or 6. I have hung low this week to get some rest and apply for new jobs pertaining to my degree. Also took the time to list things on eBay, and ship things out of the post office. I may do the same next week.
