Do you feel overwhelmed when you look at the training calendar?


If you look at the calendar closely, yes you will be running a lot over the next 13 weeks! Looking at the training schedule for March may seem intense at this point in your training. Hence, the reason we are training. Take it one day/one week at a time. You will be ready for each week when we get to it.

You are taking actions now to prepare for those weeks. The increase in mileage is so gradual. When you get to week 9, 10, etc. you will not even notice the extra mileage! Never doubt what you are capable of doing with proper training.

"Fear melts when you take action towards a goal you really want." Robert G Allen

Your actions include;


  • Three short runs per week and one long run

  • Rest Days

  • X Training Days: DO YOGA!

As always, Happy Running!

Kudos to Michelle, Melissa, Tara, Angie, Rhonda, Mike for a great 3 mile run today!

  1. Great run this morning. It really is much more fun to run in a group. I found that I 'forgot' I was running at points and was never worried about finishing the 3 miles. I am so glad this group was created. :-)
