Who ever owns the information, owns the power of direction. I own the direction of my runs based on the information I need to get stronger and faster. Sometimes, it is great to forget everything and just run. But more than that, your ability to think, learn, assess, and calculate can change everything.Here is a great tool that will help you assess and then adjust for the better.
