Hello, Blogworld....I'm back!
Since this is mostly a running blog, I didn't have much to talk about today since I only ran two times per week the whole summer. I must confess that I did miss one week.
I was trying to ward off getting injured like I did last Fall when I came back after summer full force with little summer running.
Anyway, my 4 kids are back at school, and I've run every school morning they've been back. That puts me at 6 six miles runs in 8 days.
My friends and I are eying a fall half marathon -- the 2nd City of Oaks Half Marathon -- which is in early November. Several of us ran it last year; it was pretty challenging with the last mile and half or so mostly UP-hill. That was caps for emphasis. Anyway, this year's race has been reconfigured so that it doesn't end on a hill.
In my running group - The Trail Mix - there are 12 of us already signed up for the Disney Half Marathon in January.
So, I'm working on a training plan for our group, mostly based on the Galloway plan; I'm trying to figure out how to work in both Half Marathons. How do we train between the two? We had to jump in at week 3 or so on the Jeff Galloway training plan, so this week we're already on to a 8 or 9 miler this week. I'll let you know how it goes. :)
