KEEPING MOTIYATED-Tom Amiro

Chelmsford -- Whatever yourreason is for running, whether it befor fun, health, or competition, youmay someday reach a point whereyou need to renew yourmotivation. Perhaps your racetimes have stopped dropping byIeaps and bounds, or maybe you areno longer challenged by yourpresent variety of nuuring. When

this occurs, it is time to startworking at making running moreinteresting.

I've found the best way tomotivate myself is by trying toeontinually set personal records.By records I do not necessarilymeal speed improvements. Arunning record can be anlrthing youhave never done before during yourrunning career. For example, oneof my recent records was sevenstraight days of no running.

The first thing you have to do isto keep a mnning log. Without alog book you can't tell whetheryou're doing the same old thing ornot. You might think keeping adetailed log is the surest way tomake your running less spontaneousand interesting. Not so!Remember Mr. Mason's articleabout runners being such creatunesof habit. Logless nrnners still nrnthe same routes at the same pace,with the same people, and so on.

Once you keep track of whatyou a^re doing you can set all sortsof records. Here's a list ofpossibilities:

I Conseeutive days with 2 ormore mns.

I Most races in a year, week,or day.

I Longest interval betweenraces, between days off.

I HighesL mileage in a singleyear, week, day, or run.

t Highest number of milesunder a certain pace (e.9.,6 minute pace) per week,day, or run.

I Fastest time on a 20 miletraining run.

I Fastest times for clistancesfrom 100 yards to 50 miles.

I Fastest times on favoritepersonal eourses.Highest number of runsover a eertain distanee (say15 miles) in a month, week,or day.Most number of differentroutes run in a single week.Most nurnber of miles onthe track, quarters, halves,miles, etc.Shortest or longest timebetween marathons,

You don't have to set a recordintentionally. In reviewing your logyou may discover something newand record worthy. Ab the veryleast, you'll have lots of statisticsat the tip of your tongue to unloadin eonversation with other numers.

If your motivation starts towane, set a new objective ar.rd shootfor it. For awhile it will give yousomething to mn for. For example,you eould choose to rrn a personalbest for 2 miles on the track. TheGLRR 2-mile series, which is heldiluring the summer months, is aperfect vehicle for helping you tomeet this objective.

For the very seriouscompetitive nulner, motivation isno less a concern than for a fun orhealth corscious runner,Maintaining high internity trainingyear after year becomeswearisome. You can't just set onegoal like "getting faster." Youcanrt just follow the "more andmore" philosophy either. Therecomes a time when setting a newweekly mileage record is counterproductive to better mming.Winning the race, or beating yourarch rival, or setting a PR timeprovides some reinforcement, but itisn't enough. The more littleobjeetives you set and aehievealong the way, the easier it will beto keep motivated.

PREPING FOR BOSTON

Colin Goultlson

Tradition would have us believethat in spring a young man's fancyturns to love and the fair sex. Ifthis wdre true, then on PatriotsDay the BAA Marathon wouldconsist of a bunch of old galootschasing old maids down highway 16dressed in nothing more thanbombay bloomers, cotton singlets,and old tennis shoes dragged out ofgnanny's closet. The rest of uswould have long ago abandoned thatuseless 26.2 mile trek for moremeaningful endeavors like wooingfair maitlens in yonder shoppingmall.

In reality, sensibility prevails.We pursue dreams according to ourmode of living. -We arsnot-eraz"res-*to want to talce part in up to 2lmile rurs eaeh Sunday morning forthe so called glory of staggeringaeross a finish line that has beencrossed, cused, or caxessed bYhundreds before us. The marathonbecomes a very serious business formany who seek to personally excelin competition, so much so thateven diets and speeial trainingschedules have been adopted.

Here is one such plar t wouldlike to share. Be wary though, thissehedule is not for everyone. If youare aiming for the 2:40's its asuggestion. Will Mason and TomAmiro have adaptations of this

schedule. Will tells me hismaximum for any week is 80 milesand that he follows the "fast onWednesday" regime. On the otherhand, Tom prefers the 130 mile Perweek gruel and eats all Lhe time.Whatever your training, during yourfinal week run a little over halfyour highest mileage Per week.

As for diet, I discovered thefollowing diet in a Monlrealnewspaper while in that city for the'82 marathon. I performed minorsurgery on it to suit my particularhabits. The bottom line!Experiment unlil you havesomething you think is suecessfuland use it. If you perform badlyyou can always blame thet'experimental" diet or the lastweek of training.

In what has become an a^reatradition for loeal runners, thefamous "Fudgical 5K Series" ofraces has started over irrTewksbury. Sponsored by theGLRR, these weekly 5K races areheld every Saturday morning duringJanuary, February, and Marehregardless of weather conditions.Each race starts at l0 a.m. fromthe enlrance to Tewksbury HighSchool. The entry-fee is 25 cents.Now this is what you get for thequarter: (l) ar official number (2)a police escort (3) a flat course (4)a chalce to make the Boston Globe

So far, I've raced in the firstfive races a-nd can give you aninsiders view of the race. It hasdrawn an average of 65-75 mnnerswith 74 toeing the line oneSaturday. What amazed me is therange of racing ability which isattracted to this little 5K race.Some of the best runners in thearea (including southern NewHampshire) have shown up for thisrace the past two weeks. Forexample, last Saturday saw sevenrunners break 17 minutes for a

I like the race because it servesas a good opportunity for a speedworkout. Even though it's early inthe year, it doesn'L hurt lo startlaying a good base for those5-milers and 10-K's lhis spring andsummer.

Well, how about you? Will wesee you next Saturday? It sure is alot more fun than staying insidewatching cartoons with the kids.
