April SorensenThis may be yet another blog that lasts for a few months and then fades away to become out of date and unused. But maybe not.  My reason for starting this blog is to chronicle my thoughts as I learn more about training as a runner and a coach.

I’m now 35 and I’ve been running competitively since the eighth grade.  I’m an amateur, casual competitor, which means I run races from time to time.

During the warmer months I’ll run as many as two or three races a month.  And I usually run races not more than an hour’s drive from my house. I’m fascinated with all the ways, research-based and otherwise, to become a better runner.
