Before I get into my focus for the week, let’s talk about running for a bit shall we? After my 14 mile run on Saturday my legs were DONE. They were sore, my body was tired and that was to be expected since I hadn’t run that far in over a year. I woke up...

Week 4 of my marathon training has ended. I’m tired. Yep, I think after week 4 I finally got the point where my body and mind were in need of a break. I think the 14 miles on Saturday really took it out of me. Wes and I made it a point to sleep in a little later...

I am happy to say that day 2 of getting up at 5:00 am to get my run in before week was a success. While I was definitely more tired, I knew once again I really didn’t have much of an option. This morning I had a workout planned. The original idea was to get up...

Whew, I forgot how hard it is to get up at 5:00 AM in the morning. I sure wish the sun came up earlier! Yesterday I officially got back to the grind, and even though I was ready and excited to start back I really wasn’t ready for that wake up call this morning....

I seriously can’t believe how quickly these weeks are flying by. Week 3 of marathon training has already come to an end. It is hard to believe! When I first looked at the schedule for the week I noticed two things that were different: My tempo run increased by 1...
