Most people couldn't even contemplate that number of marathons, but to do 9 ultras in one year is truly breathtaking and what great results too.<br />You've clearly been giving yourself a talking to and what's important is you've listened.<br />Rest up, take it easy and enjoy life for a while.<br />LesleyxForwardMotionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06761069547180449735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668595296134893755.post-76818833383348770332009-10-22T16:22:17.800-03:002009-10-22T16:22:17.800-03:00Great year Richie!

I'm a firm believer that most of us have little idea of our true potentials and will never know what we could have done if only we had tried harder.<br /><br />You've tried harder, and yes, you've probably tried too hard but you had the guts to do it, something most of us lack. Well done on a brilliant year!Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01483958361199179409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668595296134893755.post-84120938582607330562009-10-22T05:53:00.828-03:002009-10-22T05:53:00.828-03:00i knew it, you are human!! what a brilliant year ...i knew it, you are human!! what a brilliant year you've had. not just running but actually competing at ultras. enjoy the biccies :)katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15181895420538192368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668595296134893755.post-52217880846750440982009-10-21T18:10:32.158-03:002009-10-21T18:10:32.158-03:00Richie - reckon I should get you my "training...Richie - reckon I should get you my "training schedule " the complete end of the scale to yours.. Sure I am never going to break 16 hrs in the WHW, but it could be a good change for you, and there is no way it will not let you recover. What a year you have had..

As a mere mortal can I make a suggestion? ...Richie,<br />As a mere mortal can I make a suggestion? <br />Many athletes use races as training. When you are training as much as that between races you may be doing the old body a bit of damage that may be avoided if you had an active rest, either swimming, biking or very easy running. (Join me on a hard run?)<br />The addiction of running is such that you may have to control your efforts and very easy training at a speed or effort well below your normal level may help. That goes for my previously quoted friends too!!!Daviehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08861644884461804956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668595296134893755.post-41246931683624751982009-10-21T13:42:18.589-03:002009-10-21T13:42:18.589-03:00My goodness, am I reading correctly?

A sensible post from Richie, recognising that 9 ultras in a year might be enough?<br /><br />As John has said - what a great year you have had Richie. It's time for a decent rest. In fact, it would be a good time for someone to organise a night out where all of us who are resting can partake in a few whiskies...Ianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02079324675551107144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668595296134893755.post-17503595537077040452009-10-21T12:39:44.821-03:002009-10-21T12:39:44.821-03:00You've had an amazing year Richie.

I remember the 170 miles you did on the whw up and down over 4 days in March! <br /><br />When you reflect on this year all you have to do is think back to the whw race and finishing in that amazing time of 16hrs 24mins!!!<br /><br />Plus you have the Adventure Show to remind you of the race! <br /><br />That was the key one and you achieved far beyond your wildest dreams.<br /><br />Enjoy your rest and don't eat too many choccy biccies.<br /><br />JohnJohn Kynastonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16436853872576303518noreply@blogger.com
