My Road to Boston 2007

My Favorites

Without getting too gushy over things, here are a few running websites/podcasts that I think are great.

www.usatf.org/routes Great for mapping and measuring new routes. The tulips are in bloom and I steer all of my runs through the park to see them. The site will also let you save your route information in a public catalogue, so you can reference it again.

www.djsteveboy.com He does a great running podcast once a week. The podcast is generally a little more than an hour. It is electronic music and he let's you know at the beginning of the podcast the speed of the music. So, if you are doing a short quick run or a longer slower run he has got something to match your speed. It is always important to have good music when running.

www.halhigdon.com I think Hal is great. There is a good amount of information for free on this site. I can personally speak for the half-marathon and 10k training programs. From what I can tell he has been running for most of his life. His bio is inspiring. To celebrate his 60th birthday he ran 6 marathons in 6 weeks. Hal celebrated his 70th by doing 7 marathons in 7 months. He has stamina I may never know. He is very knowledgeable and it is a great place to find a comprehensive training program.

Enjoy!
