Why should I practice running slow? I already know how to run slow. I want to learn to run fast. | |
— Emil Zatopek | |
[Zatopek is widely (and certainly by me) considered to be one of the greatest runners of the 20th century (I would say recorded history). In the 1952 Summer Olympics, Zatopek won the gold medal in the 5K, 10K and in the marathon. It was the first time he EVER competed in a marathon. | |
I know what it feels like to run slow (slow jog = slog) and I remember what it was like to run fast (well, fast for me anyway). I would love to feel that sensation again. | |
