Well, week 1 of training is almost completed! Three days of running, one day to go. I ran Mon, Tue. and Thur. - 5 k each time. I have a longer run on Saturday - we shall see how that goes.
I think I may redo this week - so I don't go up in kms too quickly - I am coming off a month long break... shin splints would not be fun right now...and I have time to spare... so sounds like a win/win for me.
I've chosen to follow Hal Higdon's novice marathon training. I've done his 1/2 marathon training before and it went well... so I figure I might as well stick to what I know. Fingers crossed there won't be any injuries on the way.
What else have I done this week? I've walked 10km twice, biked on the trainer and had one session of cross fit (Which I really enjoy!). I know I will enjoy the next sessions - I've signed up for 12 sessions with personal trainer to really get me going and understanding the moves - it's a bit complicated for me. I tend to overthink things... I will get it. I just hope it doesn't take me as long as it took me to learn to snowboard! haha
I'm planning on having a rest day tomorrow - perhaps I'll walk or bike a little - but nothing too taxing. A well deserved rest!
