This is how I did it, this morning:23mwp + 58mhc + 14mcd =95 minutes + 15 weight exercises + 18 minutes dry sauna.I feel great!!

This will get me through the day.How about you Kevin, what did you do today?

Henry

Hi Henry,

Sorry I haven't been by the internet for a couple weeks. Terra and I had a great time. Thanks for the hill workout. I'm looking forward to seeing you at Carlsbad and if things work out Terra might be able to run it also. If not she will be at Bloomsday and Bay to Breakers and I hope that are going to run there too. Thanks again and I'll see you soon.

Take care,

Kevin

I did 55 minutes today,I had alot going on today in mind,someone get on my way,so I did what to do first.Now I am fine,you see when you do alot weight exercises it gets you ready for everything in life.If it wasnt weight exercises I could be sick today.

Thanks for beanut batter

Henry

getting ready for the Carlsbad 5k in 1 month? Hope to see you there! Bring some books and shirts to sell.

Yeah,I am getting ready,but it is too long away to walk or run up there.How do I get there?

Henry

contact the race director asap, so they can advertise your appearance.

maybe you could travel like every other 19:40 5k'er and pay your own way.

He is hardly any other 19 minute 5k runner. Would you expect a top pro in any other sport to pay his own way to some big event in their sport? I think not. As a former world record holder, many people want to see him, get his autograph and picture whether he is running 19 minutes or 16 minutes.

In two weeks from today I will put another 19 minutes for 5k here in ABQ,NM or someplace,but Carlsbad is going to be alot faster.Believe me! my body is saying Henry you are ready to go forward and luanch gear number three for great times.

This is the year to hit those great times.

Henry

ME!pay my way to Carlsbad? Are you kidding me? I have not pay my rent for the last two months.I am knocking every door in every company to hire me in the last three month.Everytime they see my face looking so desparate for a job, they shut the door on my face and you are telling me to pay my own way.I am barely sleeping at night halfway awake because no food in my stomach.It is even worse every time I tell them who I am.

So I dont tell them any more who I am Because I willmake them laugh their heads off and shut the door on my face.What I do now I just wait until my world turn around that could be my light.

Henry

If he's genuine in his resolve and has a year to train, sure, he can break the master's record at several distances.

Henry 20 months ago you said when you're ready you'll know it by your body speaking to you--

I think #3 gear is the speed work gear-is it?

Is your body telling you it's the right time to train that #3 gear??

Best

Here is that 20 month old post-----

To 70's old-timer,

I'm glad someone is watching possitive stuff that we do in sports.Ha! I needed that cheering on.I think my normal weight at this age is about 170-172lbs. I know once I get there the world turns right!I used 142-148lbs 28 years ago.

But these years of age I will used 170-172lbs.It makes alot of sense.That is what my doctor told me last.You hit the nail on the head.

Henry

I like that!

That is the best song I never heard of.

Yeah,I am going to start my own running club called ISI.So far I have two on board.We are getting ready to the mountain as we speak this morning.

Henry

We went there to the mountains and did it:22mwp + 60mhc + 13mcd= 95 minutes + 5 weight exercises + 15 minutes dry sauna.

Yeah,we are feeling great this morning.What is next who knows?

Henry

I dont do it like that: I do it this way 6x800m with 1 minutes rest.This gives you exact time of 17:30 minutes for 5k in Carlsbad.It is the only way to trigger some running nerves and you will run like a gazzale.

Dont talk about the age now.I know what are going to say after what I mention above.

Henry

6 x 2:05 w/ 1 min rest?

oops6 x 2:05 w/1 minute rest or 6 x 2:55 w/1 minute rest?
