A quick survey for you:

1. Have you been going to the same gym for at least the past six months?
2. Do many of the guys who go to your gym at least look familiar by now?
3. Do almost all of these guys still have just about the same physique as they did when you first saw them?
4. Do you have just about the same physique since the first time they saw you?

Time for a Change

Almost all novice marathoners make the same mistake in their marathon training schedule. I made it while training for my first half-ironman triathlon and ended up with a knee injury that prevented me from running for two years. A teammate from my rowing team can’t run without pain to this day because of a mistake he made in college while training for a marathon.

The mistake is only natural. In fact, it’s part of our value system as Americans. It’s the idea that if some is good, more must be better.
