run 10 miles

I should be posting on the half marathon board but oh well.

My official training starts in just a week. It’s an 8 week program.

I am about 8 lbs above my ideal weight goal, which is 140. When I ran a marathon several years ago, I weighed 133. Of course, I am older now and will probably never be that way again, so 140 is fine. Anyway, taking care of this goal will probably take care of goal 42 as well.

I bought a $6 training manual and I have my “running journal”. I think running journals are boring, but the training manual says it’s necessary, and I see their point. Statistically, I am less likely to miss a run if I have to account for every run.

Now I found a use for the journal a friend bought me a couple of years ago.

My official training start date is June 22, 2008.

I have to get my base training done before I can do real training.

I am training for the training, then I will be training for the marathon, lol.
