It has been a week since my last post -- not because I have been in a negative frame of mind but I have been so busy that by the time I get home the last thing I want to do is spend more time in front of the computer.

Training has been going well for Japan -- in the two weeks since I have instituted the combined mileage training program I have done 130 kms walking and 140kms on the bike so I am on track...........I had a great tempo workout this morning --1:05:34 for 10k so I feel I am on track for my goal time -- a slow process of building up the endurance once again.........Feels good just to be focused on my own training now.....Taking a brief respite from the clinics has been a good thing--mentally in particular........

On the clinic front I have had continued discussions about a possible "Personal Best" walking clinic with the Running Room -- basically I am doing it either with or without them --serious competitive walkers are asking for it and this is something the RR will be missing if they do not provide it -- they provide it for runners so what is the problem????

Hopefully that will work itself out in the next little while
