My First Marathon: Questions
Ok runner friends – I need some advice! Trying to put together some plans for our first full marathon next weekend, and need help with some of these decisions. Do you bring your fuel belt or rely on course aid … Continue reading
Marathon, um, Wednesday: Week 16
OMG … it’s already Tuesday. That’s how tapering has been going. I don’t even think about running anymore. Which is weird because this week still required a decent amount of it. I’m just sailing along, busy as can be with Halloween … Continue reading
Marathon Monday: Week 15
See also: DONZO. With training. For the most part. TAPER TIME! The proverbial 20 miler is tucked nicely under my belt, thankyouverymuch. Here was our projected weekly plan. I got out early on Monday morning with Lindsay to get my … Continue reading

Marathon Monday: Week 9
Yup. Halfway there. The next six weeks are insane, but then we have the three week taper, so I’m just counting the days (read: runs) ’til then. This week was a ‘step back’ week again (wahoo!) so we got to … Continue reading
