It's been a while since I have "blogged" about anything, but summer is coming and I have a few half-marathons and a full marathon coming up in October! I am very excited about doing the Marine Corps Marathon at the end of October. I just looked at the schedule and if I start next week, that will give me 18 weeks of training, which is exactly how long the Hal Higdon training program is! So, I am going to try this again!
Here is what week 1 looks like and my plan for those days:
Monday (6/18) - Cross-training (Hmmm... Not sure about this one yet)
Tuesday (6/19) - 3-miles (I am meeting my friend Nancy at SCCC bike in the evening)
Wednesday (6/20) - 5 miles (Maybe I will go to Watervliet Bike Path)
Thursday (6/21) - 3-mile run (Either an early morning run or ARE's trail run in the evening)
Friday (6/22)- Rest (I am, however going on a hike - Maybe this can count as my cross-training?) I will keep you posted.
Saturday (6/24) - 5-mile pace (Either post a morning run or sign up for an ARE group run)
Sunday (6/25)- 8-miles (Probably post my own run)
As for the rest of this week and weekend, the only thing on my agenda is the Father's Day 5K on Sunday. Wish me luck on keeping up with my schedule! I am aiming for consistency and a 12-minute pace on marathon day! That will put me at 5:15. I would be happy with 5:30 as well. Can I do it? I am sure gonna try!
