Four weeks to go

Amazing how fast time flies when you don't write for 33% of the 3 months that you are training :)

I'm actually a little worried because although 4 weeks sounds like a lot I feel like it's going to go really quickly especially since the last week is a winding down and resting. So this week is the build up for next week, which is supposed to be the most difficult; then two weeks of winding down - although I might go a little bit harder the second to last week to really solidify my training. At this point I don't think that I'm going to make it under the 2 hr mark for the Feb 5. half, I mean I guess we'll see but i'm certainly not at that pace during the long runs.

So here is this week:

Monday - Rest

Tuesday -Rest (I was really sore -- and too lazy to cross train, i know, fail)

Wednesday -  4 x 1600 - tonight was difficult but more than anything it was looooonnnggg, I spent 1.5    hours in the gym total. There goes my night...not that I usually party on wednesday nights... do you?

Thursday - Weight training

Friday - Tempo 6- mile

Saturday - Rest

Sunday - 10 mile long run

Not super looking forward to the hard week next week (I'll post it later)  but that's all part of the challenge :) I can't dread these things, just have to accept and keep putting one foot in front of the other.

Maybe i'll even experience the "runners high" that i'm not entirely sure i've ever experienced. I assume it's one of those "know when you know" things - so we'll see. I'm clearly in a very nonchalant mood right now, haha maybe tonights workout took a lot out of me - and it's 12 minutes past my bedtime.

Till next time!
