While I...I am trying to be more mindful when I run. While I don't pick apart every run when I'm done--because, let's face it, most of them are pretty easy and over courses that I've run lots of times--I do spend a fair bit of time during each run thinking about my form, posture, pace, exertion, drinking, eating, etc. On long runs, I think about how far I am and what I would be doing in a race at this point. After a race or track workout, I'm definitely looking at all of my splits and reflecting on what happened.<br /><br />Swimming (much like skiing or curling or whatnot) requires lots of mindfulness in the moment to do it right, so I think it's natural to wait until afterward to pick it apart, think about all of the different kinds of drills, and figure out what worked well and what didn't. I'm glad that running and cycling are pretty easy in comparison.<br /><br />Keep having fun!Jeffhttp://www.jeffmatherphotography.com/dispatches/noreply@blogger.com
