Just had a gal I advised qualify for Boston. Krista Roy cranked it at St. George and qualified! Way to go girl! I am working on getting another athlete qualified. She is attempting at Dallas, so we are moving into our final macrocycles of training. It makes such a huge difference, in attempting a goal this big, to have a training schedule customized to the athlete. Cookie cutter running schedules can give you some framework, but they don't offer the athlete any sort of passion or fight that is needed to go the extra mile!!! If you are having trouble getting to the next level, find a person that can help you who has immense knowledge and passion for the marathon. Pick their brain, and go deep within yourself to muster that extra effort that will get you there!!! Check out www.nextlevelrunningcoach.com. A new series on Boston qualifying is due up within the week!
