I'm training for my first marathon, which will be the White Rock Marathon in Dallas on December 4, 2011. My training week runs from Monday to Sunday. Today is Monday (actually yesterday was Monday), which means the beginning of a new training week!
First, a quick review of last week (week 15):
First, a quick review of last week (week 15):
- Monday - scheduled rest - completed
- Tuesday - 3 mile run - completed
- Wednesday - 5 mile pace run - completed
- Thursday - 3 mile run - completed
- Friday - scheduled rest - completed
- Saturday - 6 mile run - completed
- Sunday - cross-training - did 45min of cycling
- Total distance run - 17 miles
15 weeks done, 15 weeks to go... No more easy weeks on the schedule, it's about to get really interesting!
The miles are starting to really pick up now. Can't wait for the weather to cool down! It's still really hot, with plenty of 100+ degree days in the forecast. The combination of long miles and intense heat may make the next couple of weeks some of the hardest of the program. Here's what's on this week's schedule:
- Monday - scheduled rest
- Tuesday - 3 mile run
- Wednesday - 6 mile pace run
- Thursday - 3 mile run
- Friday - scheduled rest
- Saturday - 11 mile run
- Sunday - cross-training
- Total running mileage - 23 miles
Have a great week!
