I put together a new running plan this weekend. Once again, my training faultered and I had to come up with a new goal to get me going. So... I sat down and figured out a solid distance running schedule for the next few months. This one actually gets me to mid-December for the Dallas White Rock Marathon. That's right... Marathon.
So its ramp up mileage time. I have not been running AT ALL so putting in some good quality miles is the first stage. I have about 5 weeks of this (I think) and then it is on to the bigger runs. Long runs. Put aside 2-3 hours out of your day runs. That is going to feel good. I'm looking forward to it and hope to remain healthy as the weeks continue.
Today's run was a short run. Most of the runs I will be doing are going to be short. I will ramp up a long run on the weekends and try to put some mileage on during the week, but it will be at a modest increase with little to zero speed work.
Should be fun.
Route: Treadmill
Distance: 4 EZ Miles
Pace: 8:00/mile
