Why did I click the Maffetone Method thread?

[Robbi]

I've seen this thread for months now, lurking, and I've avoided it like a weighty tome. But it kept popping up, so I thought OK, let's see what this is all about...

One kindle book later and lots of distracted hours at work and it's making sense.

Now I have to run slow again. Darn you guys!

Hah! It's hard not to see one of the (3?) threads on MAFF and next to beer and hottest female athletes, it's probably the third most talked about thread.

You shouldn't have done it. Now watch the fun and enjoyment you once had with running, slowly disappear.

Nah!! Just remember to mix it up once in a while and you'll be fine!

 

[Barefoot Gentile]

Exactly!

Thank goodness Mike's probably too busy to see this. Lol.

Actually I'm looking forward to trying this out. It's been quite a while getting to the point where my feet are tough enough to push my other limits, but I'm firmly there now, so it's time to focus on the whole picture a bit. I'll bet my MAF pace is atrociously low and I can get involved in the challenge of improving that and drive for distance. I'm not really a racer per se and prefer to run solo so I won't slow anybody down .
