Training continues for the Death Race in August, and for the first time in my life I am committed to a proper training schedule, unlike ad-hoc training attempts for previous races. The schedule targets a 100 mile race, and last week I completed my first 80 km week of training. From here on in, the weekly mileage continues to increase in 4 week cycles, with every 4th week a recovery week - a mere 56 km! Apart from the challenge of the race, the training targets are challenge enough, and I continue to be surprised by my progress - Not necessarily in speed, but more in endurance. I am looking forward to the weather warming up, as a lot of training is currently being done on a treadmill. Gearing up to run in -20 Deg C with wind chill, along with iced up pathways is just not appealing. As with previous races, I am using my participation in the event to raise funds for charity. Last year I joined the local Credit Valley Rotary Club, and so all donations will go towards the Rotary Foundation. This is the most effective way I know to support health, education and poverty alleviation projects locally and globally.
