Takeing it up a NOTCH!!!

I decided this summer that I wanted to take it up a notch, I wanted to take it to another level, I wanted to give it all I've got and other various cliches. So what can I do? Do I run more hard workouts? Do I up my volume? Do I add more strength workouts (maybe throw in some crossfit type workouts)? The answer to those questions are undeniable YES. It has been close to 3 years since my last BQ and my last strong marathon, and I want another one! I am aiming for Sub 3 at Fox cities and sub 6:30 at the Fall 50.  So in this quest, I am asking you Berkley Friends for help. Starting July 6th, I will be holding morning runs from Berkley East on Mondays and Wednesday (meeting at the parking lot of Olbrich park) and I would love the company. As well, each week, I will write a blog post about my experience. Some topics include: balancing miles with family, strength work outs, diet and recovery. I will also ask you for some help by asking questions and would love your answers. You can email me at jasonpenticoff@gmail.com Here is the first one, How do you stay hydrated in these hot and humid months? Let me know!!!
