Episode #14 - Dathan Ritzenhein, London Workout
Apr 22, 2009
The 2009 London Marathon will mark the fourth time Dathan has toed the line in a major marathon over the past 3 years. With an ever increasing fitness level for Ritz, Dathan and Brad have had plenty of time to tweak and analyze the buildup for Sunday. Coming off one of the best workouts Ritz has ever had in Eugene, we followed them on this fartlek workout 3 days later. To say the duo is excited to get back on the course racing is an understatement.
To watch our last workout filmed on this very same course, Lorane Highway, prior to a 2nd place finish at the '07 Olympic Marathon Trials in NYC, you can go here.
This workout was filmed on March 31, 2009 on one of Eugene's best training courses. With accurate kilometer marks spread over 10 miles of back country road, it provides an invaluable resource to runners looking to train. A 'hidden gem' of sorts within the greater Willamette Valley. Music credit goes to 'The Stills - Rooibos' and 'U2 - Magnificent'.
