And I’m pretty happy about it. I read a TON of books and sites trying to get the right mix of training and strength, plus I needed to fit in a half-marathon in August before the October 12 Chicago Marathon race date. I take a great bootcamp class a few times a week with hill and interval training, so M-W I plan to keep attending (some running but more cross-training).

Here’s a link if you want to check out my Marathon Training Calendar:

I’m hoping this is a good plan – let me know what you think! Too much running, too little? I’ll also let you know how I feel at the outset of this plan. I’m really looking forward to hitting the track tonight for the first time in a while – I think it has really helped improve my running times.

xoxo, Heather
