CHANGING AGAIN

RUN: 30 MIN / TREADMILL / AVE PACE 4.5 WITH 5.0 PICKUPS.

Watching the marathon yesterday and the Ironman sort of pumped me up in training. My plan was to start increasing my running miles Jan.1. I am now rethinking. I believe I need to start sooner. I was going to do BOSU but instead headed for the treadmill. Galloway actually starts his traing program now at 28 weeks. The penguin at 24. With my time goal of breaking 6 hours, I think I need to relook at the weeks and numbers. Thank heaven for pencil!

It seems like you have been training pretty consistantly so it isn't like you are starting from scratch. All you have to do is adhere to a formal milage program and you're there.

My unsolicited advice from personal experience is don't do too many really long runs too soon. It leads to burnout. Really long = 15+ miles (since you are a pro at 13.1!). Also, keep it up with the cross training in spin class and yoga. It makes you a better runner.

Have fun!
