Let the training begin!

I was looking through my stack of magazines that I have yet to read, and I found last month's edition of "Runner's World". The edition is focused on the Half-Marathon, and specifically targets those who are training for their first. Well, that's me....so I am starting their training program this week. It looks like this: Rest Monday, Wednesday and Friday; Run 3 miles EZ on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday; and Run 5 miles LSD (whatever that means) on Sunday. My mileage has decreased a little with the heat, but I'm determined to follow the plan...even if it means walking to finish the mileage. We're still under an Excessive Heat Warning, so I will be hopping on the treadmill today. Anyone else training for a race? How's the training going?

  1. Anyone else training for a race? - Yes.
    How's the training going? - It would be going a lot better if it wasn't for the heat and my body slowly breaking down on me.

  2. Yay go Danielle! Nope, I'm not race training, just supporting you. :)

    LSD means Long Slow Distance I think.
