It's been a while
Almost a year since I wrote anything in here....
My running has been going well. I've "moved up" to the advanced group. Although I am far from "advanced", I thought it would be a good challenge for me. We run on Tuesday nights on the track, working on speed and more anaerobic-type runs. On some Tuesdays we go run in a neighborhood that has long hills. The goal is to run more than walk. I can actually do it!!! I was surprised about this. I thought since I have been doing 1:1's for such a long time that my body would just automatically "turn off" after one minute of running... But I now know I can run a mile without stopping. :-))))
I have two events coming up in March. The first one is a Marathon Relay in Little Rock this coming weekend. I'm really excited about this as I am running with three friends from my running group. We have the best time running together and always end up talking about food! So our team name is "The Food Critics" :-) We will drive over on Saturday together and decide which leg of the relay we want to do (there are some hills on the course...), have some fun (not too much) on Saturday night, then the marathon is on Sunday. Apparently, the medals are HUGE! I'll post a picture
My other event is on March 20 - the Germantown 1/2 Marathon. I ran this one last year in a cold rain. Hopefully, the weather will cooperate more. My goal is to run it in 2:50, which I think is very doable. I've stepped up my training to running 2:1's now so that should shave off a few minutes. And the other thing we have been working on is walking faster during our walk breaks. So I feel very confident about this race.
My training has been going really well. Saturday was our long run - 15 miles. I ran 10 of it using the 2:1 formula. I wasn't too sore on Sunday, so that was good!!!
There's another 1/2 marathon in April - I'll blog about that one another time....
