I think I've got it....



Tuesday last week (6/19/07) was our second Team In Training workout. We were working on pace and stride, and I think I've got it. First we measured what our cadence is (mine was 84, and unlike in golf, the lower number is not better). After that first lap, we had to work on improving our cadence (take shorter strides, move your legs faster, etc.) I think I've got it, and after a little while I was cranking up my cadence to about 96. This was all great - it gave me some serious speed (faster pace recorded by my garmin, was 4:19. The only problem so far is that I can't work my legs that fast for long... I'll need to work on endurance somehow, but I definitely liked the speed.
