so i have decided to begin training for a half marathon….actually a marathon but i will run a half marathon first and then move on to the big dog.

I call it a conquest because it is something i am going to conquer…it is a life goal of mine and what better time than now?

Tomorrow would technically be considered “day 3″ of training. We started on a Saturday and re did the schedule to fit our schedules. We are following a 26 week (186 day) training schedule because, well, we are both starting from nothing. We are taking it slow as to build endurance and such.

I am excited about this endeavor because I am doing it with someone. And not the “doing it with” like lets both train and then run in the same marathon or half marathon. The kind where we will train on the same schedule and at least together once a week. I am excited because i am not only going to get to conquer a life goal, but i am getting to build this relationship and get into shape.

here is a pic of the training schedule we are keeping to…dont make fun that the first week is “walk 20 mins”…we think its funny too so we are walking for longer than that.

(where i got the schedule)

So, tomorrow i will arrise at 5:45 and we will walk at 6am before we go to work.

have you ever ran a half or full marathon? any words of wisdom?
