I am a late forties kayak racer. My goal is to compete at the World Masters Games in Turin, Italy in 2013. I will be racing in ICF sprint kayaks. This blog will be my training diary for the next 4 yrs. I use a variety of running, weights, and cross training to hopefully become a better kayaker.

THIS IS A GOOD TIME TO ASSESS HOW YOU ARE FEELING.
Remember your goal is to safely and confortably complete a 10K event. It's important to be honest with yourself.

If the running progressions have been comfortable for you, then you can choose to continue with the program.

If you find you are struggling at any time with the increases in running time, or simply like the idea of staying with a combination of
