Good week so far. After cross-training on Monday, I did a hill workout yesterday and a one-hour maintenance run today. Tomorrow is cross-training. I'll do some speed work on Friday and a trail run on Saturday.
Today is National Running Day. Real all about it here: http://www.runningday.org/
If you've been meaning to start running, there's no better time than today. Just do it!
But not too much. A recent study suggests that moderation in running might be best: http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/observations/2012/06/04/ultra-marathons-might-be-ultra-bad-for-your-heart/
I've written about U.S. swimmer Missy Franklin before. Here's a piece about Miss Franklin that should be required reading for the parents of all young athletes: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702303674004577434550791785644.html?mod=WSJ_LifeStyle_Lifestyle_5
