Addendum to Post Half Marathon Plans

Okay--here's some changes. Basically my days are going to stay the same, but I'm going to be a little bit more hardcore to see if I can get my speed down.

Mondays: Easy run (3-4 miles). No fancy watch. Just going and not worrying about mile splits. I'll probably do the Lake Point run (if the weather is clear) or the Stansbury Tri run. Weight training afterwards (just using dumbbells right now until the basement is finished. Then I'll bring out the big guns.)

Tuesdays: hard swimming in the morning and spinning in the evening.

Wednesdays: Tempo runs
September: 9:30 pace (week 1: 3 miles, week 2: 3 miles, week 3: 4 miles, week 4: 5 miles, week 5: 3 miles)
October: 9:00 pace (week 1: 3 miles, week 2: 4 miles, week 3: 5 miles, week 4: 3 miles)
November: (start training for Painter's Half Marathon goal: 2:00-2:10)

Thursdays: lite swimming and weight training unless too tired and need a rest day.

Fridays: Long runs
September: 10:15 pace (week 1: 6 miles, week 2: 7 miles, week 3: 8 miles, week 4: 6 miles)
October: 10:00 pace (week 1:6 miles, week 2: 7 miles, week 3: 8 miles, week 4: 6 miles)
November: (start training for Painter's Half Marathon goal 2:00-2:10)

Saturdays: Long bike ride or Stansbury Tri bike/run course or races.

I'd also like to lose 20 pounds before we start training for the marathon. And I'd also like to take a ride on a unicorn. Both have about the same likelihood of happening.

I'm going to update the blog once a week, maybe Sundays, during the "off" training time so I hold myself responsible for these grandeur plans. I'll send you a link like I did before when it's updated. Of course, feel free to update it yourself too. :)
