Well I suppose I better kick this thing off!
The goal of this blog is to document my thoughts on my training/racing experiences, as I attempt to restart my Inline Speed Skating career after what was a lengthy absence, due to a re-occuring lower back injury and my degree studies (both of which are over with now!).
Today is Saturday, a rest day for me and the day before only my third race since rejoining the sport! goals for today are simple: REST. I've spent the week tapering down my training, easing of the gas if you like, I've done some cycling, skating and slideboard work gradually reducing the amount I've trained to now, my rest day, in which I shall do nothing! (well apart from clean the car and my skates...) combine that with lots of quality eating and I should be good to go! :)
Goals for tomorrow? well, since my aim is to become dominant (or at least competitive!) in the sprint division, I want to have a good race in the 500m - the other distances, those I'll treat as training! as I say to the Woodham lot, time on skates is everything and I won't want to waste any when I've got a track to skate on! :)
