Track Your Progress

I've started to realize how fundamentally different the approach to endurance running is compared to my previous training for soccer.

Since I haven't had the time to do a lot of prehab, movement prep, and strength training due to school obligations, I've been focusing on my running and regeneration work.

But the main difference is that tracking my progress is no longer an option. It's a necessity. I've been using http://www.mapmyrun.com to plan my runs and record my mile average afterwards. So far, I'm shooting for a sub 8-minute mile or maybe even a 7:30 mile.

Here's a screenshot of my long run this week (only about six miles, but you have to start somewhere):
