Pacing

I started off this post thinking about why I think baseball is mundane. The pacing of the sport is far too slow. I lose interest in the game, and while I am unfocused on what is happening, someone jacks one out of the yard or a foul ball is coming in hot to smoke me in the face. Not my thing.

Instead, I stumbled upon The Science of Sport blog. More specifically, this post centered around the human ability to pace one's self during the course of physical exertion. It reveals motivation's important contribution to pacing exercise intensity.

Fascinating stuff for something not considered while doing trail running. Now if I could only pace my eating habits...
