Marathon Training, Take One

I've officially completed week one of my training program. 17 more weeks doesn't seem like much time AT ALL to get to 26 (point two!) miles. . .

I've already altered it a bit, running five instead of doing the cross training on Sunday. I think that will be a week to week decision depending on how I'm feeling. Given the choice, I'd rather get in 5 days of running, but I am hyper aware of how an injury will throw off training. We'll see.

I still need to figure out how I'm going to manage the group run. I love the West Stride group, but I know I'm going to need to train with people who are going the distance. This blog will be a good measure of just how big a procrastinator I am...

That's a great job! Our blogs are pretty similar, only difference is I'm just trying to work up to ONE whole mile!
