After (kinda poorly) documenting
my half marathon from last fall, I decided that a) I'm going to run a full marathon this fall--I'm already second guessing that decision. And b) I'm going to do a better job of documenting the training this time around. Sharing, enlightenment, witty banter, complaining--take it as you will.
Other potentially important (and unimportant) tidbits:
- my knee -- the collateral ligament strain is clear, the patellar tendinitis (aka runner's knee/jumper's knee) is taking it's sweet time to heal
- this means "easing" back into an actual training schedule back to icing my knee daily
- research & make a full marathon training schedule--would be super helpful to have that on hand
- also my knee strap is MIA, so probably smart to invest in another
- I bought a 25lb kettlebell--those things aren't to be taken lightly (pun intended). It totally kicked my ass on Friday. I was sweating everywhere. Then all weekend was sore absolutely everywhere.
Here we go!
First workouts already in the books from last week. Tuesday, 3 miles. Wednesday, 1 mile on treadmill, incline at 10. Thursday, 3 miles. Friday, kettlebell weight lifting 2 miles on treadmill, incline at 10. Read more of #fullmarathonproject,
