So I been agonizing over my lack of form this year. I thought I got it figured out that the reasons I been running slower are:
- Age – Soon gonna be half a century old. Cannot expect to be able to maintain the same type of performance.
- Mileage or rather lack of mileage. Since 2008, has been running shorter distances and average mileage per week is about 30km. Certainly not sufficient to even maintain previous speed.
- Speed – again the lack of speed training. Speed training or interval training or tempo run is something I don’t really like. Without that, how to possibly improve?
Ah so now I know the real reason why I am slower this year. Time to lose that extra 4 kg. But maybe can wait until next Chinese New Year.
