It's been on my list of things to do for a long time: run a marathon.
I can check it off my list on June 14th.
I signed up for the Teton Dam Marathon. Here is the link to the site: http://www.dammarathon.com/
I have 97 more days to train. I am going to run 3 times a week with speed work on Mondays or Tuesdays, a tempo run on Wednesdays or Thursdays, and my long runs on Saturdays. I
will spin, swim, or play basketball on the other days with at least one session of weight training/week.
Doing a cross-training program will help me get ready for the Spudman at the end of July.
Here is my 14 week training plan that will start immediately:

Dang Kaly! Way to go. How's it going? Those workouts look intense. How are you finding the time? When do you work out?
Ha, it's going to be the half-marathon at the most. My workouts have consisted of re-doing cabinets and tiling the new house, and will soon consist of grouting, cleaning, and moving! This move is going to take up any and all free time--I just feel guilty if I go run. I don't know what i was thinking. I think I will save all that ambition from that post and plan a marathon after we are settled in the new house. I am an idiot.
It's August and I am back to marathon planning again. Am I an idiot or what? I don't know if I should just start training or if I should pick a marathon (again), and then train, but actually follow through. SEriously there was no way I could have (sanely) completed this goal in the spring. But I think it's more realistic now with being settled in the new house and with Raleigh starting kindergarten....we shall see.
