Training Week 4/1 | Thor Kirleis
https://ironboy.wordpress.com/2013/04/09/training-week-41
Making it Happen…. Training for the week 4/1 to 4/7 was about laying low, recovering, and staying out of the way of speed or anything else that might aggravate the hamstring attachment issue I re-injured a few weeks back at the Cupcake. Race on the beach. For the most part, I did just that, though I didn’t exactly get myself to feeling any better in the attachment area. Another down week will hopefully get me back in order before the Boston Double on Marathon Monday! Mon: 4 miles, slow road. Started in b...

Training Week 4/22 | Thor Kirleis
https://ironboy.wordpress.com/2013/04/29/training-week-422
Making it Happen…. Training for the week 4/22 to 4/28 was about recovering from the Boston Double as well as getting mentally and physically ready for the TARC Spring Classic 50K. Although I never got to the point where I felt recovered from running 53 miles over the Boston Marathon course on Marathon Monday, I didn’t have a choice, as the weekend came anyway. Normally I would have bailed on this spring 50K, but since I am committed to making my summer race, the TARC 100. Mon: 4 miles, easy road. This en...

There is a popular saying in running that goes, You get out of the marathon what you put in. Having recently completed my 100th marathon. I have played witness to survival instinct in myself many times through my running career. Just last June, when I attempted my first 100 mile race. I was reminded of all of ...

Training Week 4/15 | Thor Kirleis
https://ironboy.wordpress.com/2013/04/22/training-week-415
Making it Happen…. Training for the week 4/15 to 4/21 was about making an attempt at the Boston Double (Boston Marathon x 2 in one day) and then recovering. The week started exactly as planned, even going so far as to turn amazing, with me completing the Boston Double in well under 8 hours. Then it all turned tragically sad in an unimaginable way. It was a long week for everyone involved. North Reading Patch did a few articles on me and my reaction:. Boston Double and Reaction to Attacks: here. Goal for ...

Making it Happen…. April 2, 2013. Training for the week 3/25 to 3/31 was about getting healthy from an injury sustained during the Race For The Cupcake 5K. And, if I did, logging at least 50K in distance on the weekend as a last training run for the Boston Double. My key summer race, I’ll want to go a little slower so that I can feel better for the second 26.2. In addition to all of that, check out this article in which I was mentioned:. Folks, that’s what it’s all about! Mon: 4 miles, slow, injured beach.

Craicfest 5K 2015 | Thor Kirleis
https://ironboy.wordpress.com/2015/03/16/craicfest-5k-2015
Making it Happen…. Sunday, March 15, 2015. 1st Master (40 ). In a field of 1500 runners, I lined up three rows from the front. I figured worst case I was a top 25 finisher, so I had no problem bellying up there. In previous years without dead legs, I would have moved up a row or perhaps even two. But there looked to be some fast guys. I’d be lucky if I could get a top 15 or 10. This entry was posted on Monday, March 16th, 2015 at 6:05 pm and is filed under Uncategorized.

Training Week 4/8 | Thor Kirleis
https://ironboy.wordpress.com/2013/04/17/training-week-48
Making it Happen…. Training for the week 4/8 to 4/14 was about trying to get my body rested and ready for an attempt at what I call the Boston Double, which is running the Boston Marathon twice in one day, the first time from the official finish line to the start, and then jump in the official race for the run from the start in Hopkinton to the finish in Boston. Rest this week would give me the answer next week (answer: yes, it did! Mon: 5 miles, slow road. Tues: 5.65 miles, easy road. Beer of the Week.
