Those of you who visit this blog from time-to-time know I've been training for several months to run in my first marathon. I've followed a training plan for non-runners, since I had never run over three to four miles before I started the marathon training. I've followed the training plan closely, [07ba35d692539e27a38aba7e4b1cc85e.js?ver=1714428191] have read a few marathon books throughout the training, as well as a couple running magazines to be as prepared as I possibly can be for the 26 miles and 385 yards. I've also been adjusting my stride and pace in order to complete the marathon distance. Additionally, I've determined when to use gels, Gatorade and Power Bars during my training runs, which I try to do on the marathon course whenever possible. The objective is to transfer everything I'm doing during my training runs to the day of the marathon. However, it hit me this past weekend that I've been storing all this information in my head and haven't transferred it to paper. I guess that's because I'm usually plotting strategies while running, and when I return from running, 07ba35d692539e27a38aba7e4b1cc85e.js?ver=1714428191 I'm icing down, stretching and resting. Although I've developed a marathon running plan in my head 07ba35d692539e27a38aba7e4b1cc85e.js?ver=1714428191, and have practiced the strategies each and every training run, I haven't put my thoughts and strategies on paper. In business, as well as life, that’s a mistake. So this week I put my plan on paper and I'm reading the running plan each day as I should have done long ago in my training. 07ba35d692539e27a38aba7e4b1cc85e.js?ver=1714428191 putting plans to paper has always been a common practice of mine in business, as well as in my personal life, but for whatever reason i hadn't applied this “best practice” to the marathon. I believe putting the running strategy to paper will assist me greatly with mentally preparing myself for successfully completing my first marathon. ********************************* Ron Goch, Sign up for our free eNewsletter, the
