My goals are basically the same as last year, that is, to qualify for Boston. However, last year I pushed very hard on all my runs. I feel that this hurt me by causing my legs to bulk up. So this time I’m looking to work hard, but to do my long runs at an easier pace and intensity. I also plan to work with the advanced Boston Qualifier group. Maybe it’ll help me last a little longer. Finally, I’m running during the summer which will be quite different since I don’t feel that I can breathe as well in Austin’s summer heat.
