Training Update (again)

ok, so plans have changed a little. Originally I had intended to do a 5k on July 3.  I am perfectly capable of completing a 5k now, yet I was not all that excited about the race I planned to enter. I found one that sounds much more fun and it is only a couple weeks later.

So the new goal is to complete the 5k at Waunafest in Waunakee on July 24.  It is a larger venue with a good number of participants. I think the range of skill levels is wider for this run and that is what I am looking for. A crowd of a few hundred people or more with a wide variety of abilities from beginner to the very experienced runner.  I have registered and am committed to participate.  Of course, it is only a few days after I return from vacation, so I need to make sure I keep up the training while traveling.

Now for an update on where I am at for my planned half-marathon.  I am pretty pleased with my Monday morning run this week.  Check it out:  7 plus miles

I still have two and a half months to train. Plenty of time to add another 6 miles or so.  I hope!
