第十個馬拉松賽跑的訓練 / Training for My 10th Running Marathon

我還記得2007年12月尾時告訢自己,吃完聖誕節的火雞大餐甜品,放下刀叉之後,就需要開始第十個馬拉松賽的訓練,做好l8個星期的凖備工作。在體重方面,我的目標是要減少4公斤,其實這是沒有什麼凖則,只是基於我對自己身體的認識,和歷年運動經驗所鑑定的「減肥」目標。所以我在過往3個半月間,都有小心飲食(eat clean),多飲牛奶及吃適量疏果魚肉,看著同桌人吃雪榚丶巧克力的時候,90%我也沒有饞嘴。

在氣力(cardio-muscular)方面,我卻仍未達到水凖,無錯,晨早心臟跳率(rest pulse rate)當然不再是全盛期的32 beats per minute,但比較上還是很健康,而時速目標(target pace)也是自己能力之內,但訓練的長程距離(long distance),卻是似乎是有點落後。在上星期五訓練日,我長跑的目標是32公里,但走了29 Km後,大腿肌肉已開始「抗議」,為了不想跑傷身體,所以立刻停止。

在最近報章閱文,知道有一個超過一百歲的人瑞,要嘗試破世界紀錄,完成在倫敦的馬拉松賽(London Marathon)。他現時能夠在5小時20分左右,跑完半個馬拉松的距離(馬拉松賽跑全程是42.195 Km)。或許在這訓練期間,我就要借用這人瑞的勇氣,努力去完成那最後的13多公里 !!!

I'm impress with that palse rate of a top athlete. While you are in training, I could be some help if you send over all your chocolates.

那個百歲人瑞是你的榜樣,
但你卻是我這個懶鬼的榜樣喎,
要多做運動! =)

以你的毅力和定力,而且你向來都能夠掌握得方向,今次應該沒有問題的。

唔係掛 ........
10K還可以,其他的免啦!!!
我的心臟跳率也很慢,不過不是運動員的慢,是身體虛弱的那種慢,要我跑全程馬拉松?我唸你係終點站永遠見唔到我啦 ~

我祗可以在此吃著甜點為你加油 ...
加油加油,微豆加油 XD ~

Haricot 微豆 said...

Keith: Thanks for your offer. With women falling all over you, aren't you sweet enough already?

Haricot 微豆 said...

新鮮人: 香港天氣比這裏溫暖,戶外運動季節也應該是開始了? 不一定是要跑步,我在港就最喜欢行山。

Haricot 微豆 said...

Xiao Zhu: 希望如此,大家共勉!!!!

Haricot 微豆 said...

Hyacinthus: 多謝您的鼓勵,那是運動員最需要的精神食糧啊!

Keith said...

Huh, what women falling all over me? Not after my extreme craving for chocolates. Sigh. They like to go for the athlete type these days, perhaps Marathon runner.

Haricot 微豆 said...

Keith: 哈 !!
