I think I am going to train for the Tacoma Marathon. And if it gets to be too much I will switch to the half. It is relatively easy to switch distances without much hassle.
Training would officially start next week. I'm a little worried about my knee and the extra mileage upsetting my ankle...and the general burn out. I have to eat a lot better than I have been too. I need to do a food diary and try to stay off sugar, soda, and other stuff I love...and should not eat.
Here's what I did this week:
Monday - Ran 4.50 miles with a pace of 9:58 in the morning
Tuesday - It was very very icy and the sidewalks and streets were slick. I had to go slow. I did five miles with an average pace of 11:05
Wednesday = Rest
Thursday = Ran 3.27 miles with an average pace of 10:24
Friday = Weights for 20 minutes and stationary bike for 35 minutes at the gym
Saturday = Long run. Ran 8 miles (5 miles with a friend) with a pace of 10:32 in the morning.
Sunday = Intervals at Pringle School...about three miles. Average pace about 9:59. Pouring, pouring rain. Not a break from the rain at all.
