Hardest Training camp yet!

"I feel like I wanna puke." - Captain Tdiscgreggy

Following Wednesday's gruesome workout...Tdisckree released this statement. "It's been a tough training camp so far...the toughest that i've ever been to. We're not going to stop...we're going to continue to push the envelope. This is how we're going to get the big fella on the podium in Fredericton. Thanks for your time."

Wednesday morning we met at the TTF and proceeded to the track for some interval work. We did 5- 800m sprints on a 3 minute pace with a 3 min 400 in between. This was the toughest thing that I have done since the Iditerod back on Dec. 23rd...in which the admiral won minues winter clothing. The inspirational moment of the day came at the end when our Captain was struggling(he didn't run since NFLD)and we suggested that it was enough and he never even looked our way and said "I have1 more lap boys." It was something u would expect to hear from your captain.

Trying to loosen things up a bit during a tough week we decided to take off to hear Brad Paisley in Halifax. It was awesome! We didn't mind standing up considering we could hardly sit down from the tough workouts that training had brought so far.

Today was a light jog followed by another weights circuit. My legs felt really tired but I still felt great.

Tommorow we begin our long runs. 14k is in store for Tdisc. In preparation for this I decided to get a new pair of runners and a new running hat. He threw in some "nice socks". I look forward to tomorrow.

Till next time,
Tdiscpye
