End of the Week Link Roundup

Another week comes to end and I’m looking forward to the weekend because I’m going to start training for another race (not competitive, but for my personal achievement of course)! I’m pretty excited about getting back into training for a race again. Runners World has some great stuff on training tips and great tools for a runner like me. I just hope that I can build up more endurance to be able to handle the longer distance that I plan to run.

Anyway, as I always deliver on Fridays, here are what other bloggers are discussing around the blogosphere:

FitSugar is giving away 5 $100 gift cards to Whole Foods! You know I’m going to try to win me one. You must be a registered user and take a quiz, but just by taking the quiz you’ll be entered to win, no matter how many you get right or wrong. I got 2 out of 5 right, but I’m not much of a celebrity watcher, haha.

Trying Fitness gives a great explanation about posture and how to improve it. I am guilty of poor posture, especially when I’m at the computer. I like to lean over and look at the monitor when I’m really intrigued or concentrated on something I’m reading or working on. Bad, I know!

Run To Win talks about the recent death of a professional long distance runner, Ryan Shay. In recent news there has been a lot of athletes admitting to drug use, and Blaine’s post talks about the fact that drugs to enhance performance is nothing new and makes it unfair to assume all athletes are like this because there are honest ones out there.

World Fitness Network has a great post on weight lifting and gives a better understanding about each component that a barbell has. I know I wonder about how to use these weights because they look pretty intimidating to a weight lifting beginner.

The weather is great here, it’s pretty chilly, which is the perfect running weather. I’m so looking forward to running along A1A. It’s a road right alongside the beach.
