Half Marathon Training
Last week I officially started my training for the Seattle Half Marathon. It’s the Sunday of Thanksgiving weekend so I figure I have some time to train. Last week I ran a 4 mile run, today I ran a 5 mile loop. I figure if I can add one mile each week I will be running 13.1 miles by the end of September right? Perfectly logical and probably the best way to train right? No, I will start running more than once a week, but it’s a start.
Two bad parts about the weekend the Half Marathon is on though. I will be in Corvallis for my favorite meal of the year, Thanksgiving. Followed by a Friday football game where the Beavers will beat the ucks in Reser stadium. That’ll be great, but my diet that day will be far from the norm for a Gameday. Water and pasta or chicken or whatever I am told is the best food to eat 2 days before I run for afew hours. I’m guessing beer, hot dogs, and pizza are not on that list.
I was also able to run my 5 miles and then go and do a hip hop class 15 minutes later. Not to brag, but "I’m not even upset, I’m impressed."
