OK -- I'm not feeling very confident about the marathon in October... so I'm in the process of putting my training plan together. In addition to logging the miles in a combination of speed work, hill runs and long runs, I'm adding yoga, core work, a day of walking to lengthen my muscles and a day of rest.
I'll follow the Runner's World training schedule to build up my mileage to reach the 20 mile long run. I'll start mapping out exactly what each day and week will look like over the next 2 weeks. I will officially kick off my marathon training on June 6 with the Mendota Heights 5K, which I hope to finish in about 26 minutes.
For the next 2 weeks, I'll just run some easy 4-6 mile runs, maybe a 10 mile in there. We'll see!
