		<title>Three Ways to Improve Your Running Form Today</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The challenge of improving run speed falls primarily to two main physical derivatives: your cadence and the length of your stride.  And, either increasing your cadence or increasing the length of your stride -- both of those will, or a combination of the two -- will lead to an improved overall run speed.  But becoming a better runner is more than just improving the speed at which you run. ]]></description>

		<title>Discipline Is Just Another Muscle</title>

There will come a time in your training cycle when you will need to get really strong and focus in order to make sure the results that you want on race day are readily available to you.

		<title>On Conferences, Meeting YOU &amp; Training: Minneapolis to Austin Junket</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It's that time of year again when I get to hit the road. While it's no Tour of California, it's still part work / part fun. You can help make it even cooler by checking your schedule to see if you can meet up while I am on the road.]]></description>

		<title>Friday Link Love 3/5/2010: Race Recovery, Trip Planning, Technology and more from Coach P&#8217;s Radar</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This week has been a wild one, bouncing back from my half marathon (race report) and prepping for my upcoming work / training trip(s) through Minneapolis and Austin (more on those soon).

		<title>Endurance Lifestyle Design &#8212;  Excerpt 7</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By now you should have a pretty good sense of where this book is headed. Depending on where you are right now, in your life, the following chapters will either: (A) fit nicely with your world view or (B) seriously change how you think about everything from racing, to planning, to eating and more. History has shown, however, that what I have written isn’t as important as whether or not you’ll actually do any of it. ]]></description>

		<title>The Myth of Running Economy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A recent post by triathlon coach Joe Friel has kindled a great conversation about the nature of running economy and how it relates to training inside the Endurance Nation forums. I think Joe's article captures one of the biggest misconceptions around training in the running space...and it has to be stopped! ]]></description>

		<title>Race Report: Hyannis Half Marathon 2/28/10</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am not a fan of mediocre goals (I think they lead you to underachieve) and I personally don't mind missing what I set out to achieve. Getting to where you actually planned to be isn't as exciting as ending up somewhere else you didn't expect -- sometimes different is better than, well, better. ]]></description>

		<title>Endurance Lifestyle Design &#8212;  Excerpt 6</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Remember my story of countless training hours leading to caffeine dependency, strained social life and, unfortunately still sub-par results? After the final attempt at Ironman, where I missed a slot to Kona by a mere seven seconds, I was beat. With literally no more available hours in my life to train, it was clear that I needed to reevaluate the rules and assumptions under which I had been training.]]></description>
