If you're an ironman, you're no stranger to working hard. Have you read about how research suggests certain foods speed or slow muscle loss due to aging? I'm no expert, but maybe this article can help you with your long term goal of being the buffest 80-year-old on the planet. http://www.active.com/story.cfm?story_id=13080No Wetsuit Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12469623491199183549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10086418.post-26382954318632741272007-02-22T10:39:00.000-08:002007-02-22T10:39:00.000-08:00Goals can also be training-related too, not just r...Goals can also be training-related too, not just race-oriented.<BR/><BR/>For example, I had a goal of slowly but surely (and smartly) reaching peak running mileage at 100 mi/week during last fall's marathon training. I didn't PR, but the fact that I maintained consistancy and didn't injure myself meant a lot more.<BR/><BR/>The tools we develop are more important than the actual race results. Having a perfect race day with perfect weather and a killer PR requires something short of the planets being in alignment. But you will always remember what it took to prepare for the race, and lifelong fitness.<BR/><BR/>Your perspectives on goals are really interesting. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!<BR/>-StephStephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17183777773275817099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10086418.post-13410256063391521952007-02-19T15:40:00.000-08:002007-02-19T15:40:00.000-08:00Duh, #2 for the ladies.
