Running Diary, day0029: What is the healthier training habit

30th Dec 2013, 24C, overcast.
I did not run today. I wish no serious DOMS in the evening and could resume running tomorrow morning. That is why I had not push to 7 laps yesterday. I was grateful that energy conserving made no tiring feeling after 10 more hours work out. I was grateful that healthier vegan foods gave my energy throughout the race. I was grateful barefoot training made my feet tired-less. saw some runner said a respect feeling developed towards MacRitchie trail after accomplishment. I will say I developed love to it. Because the enjoyment I experienced. It all because I choose the healthier training methodology, thus out came the happier feeling.
So far most runners I knew enjoy their run only after achievement in new PBs, longer distance conquered. They bear pain an suffer fatigue during the race in exchange those achievements. They push hard and overload during training. They piss off easy run as "junk miles". Could running its be enjoyable? Could we develop health and fitness,as well as happiness?
Yes. The first thing is conserving, conserving energy for longer workout, for the rest of day's activity (work, family), for the next day workout, for the next race. One should never go all out wherever in a race or in a training. Using maximum effort usually means reaching over maximum heart rate, wearing out muscles and tendons. Believe your feeling, those unpleasant feeling will do no good to your body. Even you will see some fitness improvement. It will degrade your health. Human body were developed for longer moderate activities, like hunting and collecting seeds/fruits our ancestors did in thousands year ago. We were not designed running as a Cheetah, burst in short distance, rest the rest of the day. We are design to walk/ jog all day long to stalk the prey, to find the food. All our ancestor need to is conserving energy, the exhaust the prey, to find the next fruits bush.
The second thing is consistence, our body was designed to repeat the moderate workout day after day. As some research disclosed: the skeleton muscle damage recovery (when it is reversible) is 24 hours, consistent with human biological clock. The moderate workout mildly wear out muscles and tendons. The human boy developed a gene to refresh the body in a night's sleep. If we stay in moderate workout that only develop reversible damage, then  out body will develop the physical beniefit in a possitive cycle-- it is what Supercompensation theory described. If the workout intensity increases, the damage becomes irreversible, that will be no compensation at all, only degradation (because muscle cell could not be revive once dead) in health. At the same time, if one does not exercise in a daily basis, the supercompensation will not work so there will be no improvement in fitness at all.
Here come the conclusion: to achieve better fitness and health. One should exercise everyday in a moderate effort, conserve his energy to repeat it day after day. One could only feel enjoyable when his body is comfortable. No pain no gain is bullshit. Consistence is the only truth.
