Goodbye Weekend Sleeping In, Hello Race Training...

So it has begun! Half Marathon #2 for 2012 is scheduled! San Antonio, November 11, 2012. I decided this time I was going to document my training-- the good, bad and ugly. I am planning on documenting each days wins and losses. Here goes nothing! Week 1 - August 13 - 19, 2012 I started the week out and woke up early, put my running gear on and headed out the door. I was shooting to run / walk 3 miles. Well, in Louisiana August is one of the hottest months ever. We were predicted to have storms which means HUMIDITY HUMIDITY HUMIDITY. So pathetically, I only made it 2 miles, but I was happy I made the choice to get out of bed and go. Tuesday, I gave myself a break and slept in. After the day ended, I rode a quick 3 mile trek on my bike. This is really bad and I'm working on it. I didn't run again until Saturday and I did 3 miles. Sunday, I met some friends who were running 15 miles. I ran my 4 in 43 minutes with them. Forgot to mention, I bought new running shoes on Saturday. So far so good with the kicks! After the 4 mile run, I went on a 10 mile bike ride. My legs are pooped! Goals 1. Run comfortably at a 11 - 10.5 minute pace. 2. Strengthen core 3. FINISH the race!!!! Stay tuned for exciting running adventures! Love!
