Season 3

Yesterday signaled the end of my 2nd ten week training cycle...the Runner's World 10 mile Beginner program...and this week kicks off Season 3 (out of 5 planned training blocks)...this go round I am moving up to the 10 mile Intermediate training also from Runner's World...

although it's a program for 10 miles, I am trying to adapt it so that I can run a half-marathon...the distances start at 20 miles per week and peak at 33 miles...the first long run is only 6 miles, but I've been doing 10-12 recently...maybe I'll just play it by ear and see how I feel...maybe go longer, maybe not...

during this block of training I'll have to compensate for some vacation time...trip to New Hampshire and two weeks at the beach...in June I'm hoping to do my first couple of races of the year...a 5K and 15K...
