Training

I love to be in training mode.  Whether it is a 5-K, 10-K, half marathon, or marathon, it is the same:  there is a goal to attain, and now the matter at hand is to focus on that goal, to persevere day by day.  I have set out my little training plan for the next 16 weeks on my calendar.  And while I can be flexible, and should in fact at my age be very attentive to the little aches and pains that might portend injury, it is now a simple matter of running each workout, day by day, one at a time.

And so far it is going well:  10 miles on Day One, rest on Day Two, 4 miles up Bearpen on Day Three, and 6 miles today on Day Four.  Four days so far!

Only 109 more days to go.
