Yesterday was officially the end of the 12-week "Spring Training" portion of our marathon prep. From week 1, our weekday runs have increased from 1.5 miles to 3 miles, and our long runs from 3 miles to 6 miles. Supposedly we are now ready to begin the down and dirty 18-week "Marathon Training" program that will take us all the way to the MCM on October 28th. I sure hope so!
In other good news, we have now raised $625 for Fisher House (of the $1000 we need before 9/21/12). We would like to extend a heartfelt thanks to the family, friends, and online community (Ravelry rocks!) who have donated to our cause. We think of you all every time we hit the road for a run, because we don't want to let you down.
Oh, and my back feels much better this week. :-) It was very hot here though, so we were up at 630am getting our runs in, and I am not a morning person...it was a challenge but good to mix things up for a change.
Weekly stats:
Tue 6/19 2.82 miles in 29:53 (we got caught in the rain and cut things short this morning)
Wed 6/20 3.32 miles in 32:07 (made up for the shorter run yesterday)
Thu 6/21 3.05 miles in 31:32
Sat 6/23 6.11 miles in 1:04:21 (pretty run along the beach in CT)
Total: 15.30 miles
Thanks for reading!
You are kicking my butt on fundraising! At least I can keep up with you on the runs (most days!) Love, C
