Cyclocross training has began...

So with my first cyclocross season nearing, I continually hear from my Rogue Racing Project teammates that I should focus on interval training. Guess what? I hate intervals! To boot, I've started running as well. The alarm goes off at 6am and I am out the door. Not sure what I dislike more, running or intervals. They each have their downfalls. Running kills my knee (you know, from that one time I fell up an escalator). And intervals get my heart rate spiking WAY too soon. So what to do..keep at it, right? Tomorrow will be day two of training and for some sick reason, I am looking forward to it! With my first cross season on the horizon, my main goal is to be good enough not to be DFL. Fingers crossed! Plus, I don't want this to happen during a race!
