It's On...
So Thursday I signed up for the Indianapolis Half Marathon. Last year I did the full marathon, but this year with the way my running has been going, I thought it best to keep it to the half. It will still be tough to train for, but I think I can handle it - and I had better as my training had to start this weekend. I got 5.25 mile in for my first "long run" - though my training schedule had me running for 90 minutes... yeah, wasn't going to happen. I know I could have run longer, but since last week was my first week back after three weeks off, I felt it was in my best interest to ease into it.
Next weekend is another 90 minute run, so maybe then, but we'll have to see how the rest of the week goes. Monday is 3 miles, Tuesday is some track work (7 x 400 at 5k pace), Wednesday will be a rest day, Thursday is tempo run , Friday is 3 mile at pace - a fun week for sure.
That's all for now. Happy running to all...
