The 2024 Cross Country season is over! 

This is the second day of easy running!

Warm-up well,

30 minutes of easy running, or take the day off, up to you.

cool-down well,

Our Christmas gift suggestion! Quicksilver, the Mercurial Emil Zatopek, book by Pat Butcher: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/32739986-quicksilver

One of the finest books that I have ever read. I had met and interviewed Emil Zatopek, and Pat Butcher got him better than most! 

Emil Zatopek rewrote the record books from 5,000m to 20,000m and one hour.

He invented double-threshold training.

He was a patriot as well as a Marxist who was demoted in the Czech military after his support the Czech 1968 Spring Revolt.

He is the only man to win 5,000m, 10,000m and marathon gold-in same Olympics (1952).

As he finished the marathon, his wife, Daniela, was winning the javelin!

He is incredilby inspiring and a great read over the holidays!
