General programming ideas

I have been trying to decide which website programming to follow recently, as I have a habit of constantly wanting to change to a different schedule or website to try something new. I think what works best for me, however, is following a hybrid schedule of workouts from different sites. My default for the past month or two has been the mainsite WODs with CFE workouts thrown into the mix.

In the past few days I have been just grabbing workouts from various places and choosing the ones that I feel cover areas that I need work in or haven't done in a while...I am going to try to stick with this approach and see how it works. I like having the freedom to focus on certain areas and create my own programming but I also like a structured schedule, and this should allow for a happy medium.

Most of the WODs I use come from HQ, CFE S&C, Sealfit, or OPT's blog. This is what I have been doing recently/want to start, and I like the setup:

• Warmups and post workouts from Sealfit + my own hip warmups for running and injury prevention
  
• WODs from the crossfit endurance blog or HQ
• CFE workouts 2-4 times a week
• Additional work for preparing for extended distance running - calf/ankle/stability work, weighted lunges, weighted hikes/uphill walking
• Any supplemental work towards the 2010 goals
  

This style is what seems to work the most for me, though the hikes and weighted lunges are thoughts that I want to add in just to help prepare my legs for longer runs. Nutrition during a longer run is also something I am going to start experimenting with, since it is such a crucial part of extended races.

Thought I would just write some of these thoughts down so I didn't forget them.
