First and foremost thanks for the comments and emails for congrats. That means a lot to me. Life is funny these days. Not having a training plan is weird. It has been more than 3 years of continuous training. I have practice starting in a few weeks and I trying to get myself acclimated to running 6 days a week. Who knows what the next few weeks will bring but I am hopeful it will be a huge learning experience. This week has been interesting. I have been low level sick now for about 2 weeks. My stomach/bowels has been turning tricks in my body. Not fun at all. Here is how it went:
Monday-Strength/conditioning
Tuesday-4 miles. Sully is a good running buddy.
Wednesday-4 miles that turned into 2 miles. Had a bowel episode at the lake when Sully and I were at the lake and things just didnt work out.
Thursday-5 miles. Just getting miles in.
Friday-off
Saturday-Swim/bike brick-Newbie training and not so much training for me. I love exposing people to this lifestyle. She is going to be a great addition to the group.
Sunday-8 to 10 mile run turned into 2 miles. I almost had the worst run ever. Thank god I got home in time. one mile out and one mile back. ROUGH.
Don't say you don't have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Michelangelo,
Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein.
KD via someone else, lol

Love this
Sorry about your GI problems - bleh! Hope that decides to vacate really soon!
I thought I was going to explode without a training plan....I can't remember the last time I woke up and didn't look at my schedule to know what to do that day. Really, it depressed the heck out of me for the longest time. But as time as grown and my heel is cooperating more, I'm actually enjoying the wake-up-and-see-how-I-feel-and-run-accordingly plan. At least for a little bit...I'm starting to get the plan itch again...the reason I know this is because I actually added up my mileage last week for the first time in about 10 months. :)
