Bi-Weekly RunDown #202

“I also contribute my longevity to smart training. 
I don’t overdo my mileage, some would say 
I don’t train enough to run 100s.”
Karl Meltzer

Interview with Karl Meltzer that above quote came from.  By the way Karl Meltzer won the 2020 No Business 100 that was run this weekend - see below for results

My Training Overview #67  - for now am doing it in 2 week segments

Fast Women Newsletter #93

Not a report but paced my friend Ty Martin, who I interviewed some time ago here, at the No Business 100 this past weekend form mile 69 - 88, or so, and was great weather - the race was won by Karl Meltzer - here are the results

Here is the Citius Newsletter before the World Half-Marathon Championships

Here is a report on the Championships: Men's Race where Kiplimo upsets Cheptegei and the Women's race where Jepchirchir sets a world record

Kilian ran a 10K this weekend that also included Jakob Ingebrigsten - the result was that Ingebrigsten ran and Kilian ran a 29:59 and Ingebgisten ran 35:05 as he paced his brother early on then looks to have just cruised in to finish

Why do not runner's knees fail more often - as one who has run for 47 years I can attest that I have some foot issues but only once had knee issues and it was due to a knee cap tracking issue - incidentally solved by taking up riding, but really no other issues, except maybe some swelling back in the day on my first 100 mile week of a new season but it went down and all was well.
