3 just 3

Just 3 miles on the books today. It was slow and painful. I think the full moon and lunar eclipse had something to do with me NOT sleeping last night. Very tired today, but motivated to keep going. 8 miles on the books tomorrow.

5 comes before 6

Did a combo walk/run today of 5 miles. Felt like a million miles. UGH! I think it was too much on the old knees to do 6 yesterday and 5 today. I had to burn off some of the chocolate chip cookies and chocolate dipped pretzels that I have been eating all day. A girls gotta do what a girls gotta do though.

13.1 is the question

I have been contemplating the idea of doing a 1/2 marathon. I am in week 4 of my training and had the best day of training so far today. Six miles was on the books and I walked the first 3. The second set of 3 I did a run/walk combination. I have decided that if I am going to make it through this 1/2 marathon I need to take it at my own pace. I am thinking I will do the run five minutes and then walk the rest of the mile until I get to the next mile marker. When I get there I will run 5 minutes and then walk to the next mile marker. I think this plan just might work. I will keep you posted.
