This was a huge week for me in terms of running. Well, and other things also, since I just started my full time job last Monday! Not only did I do the Hershey half marathon with a pretty big PR, I also ran the furthest distance I’ve ever gone. And actually felt pretty good about […]
WDW marathon training – week 15
Recapping my marathon training from week 15! I doubt many people really care but if I don’t post I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold myself accountable and I’ll allow myself to skip runs, and I don’t want to do that. This was an easier week, requiring the two short runs and then one […]
WDW marathon training – weeks 13 and 14
While I’ve fallen a bit behind on posting blog updates regarding my run training, the good news is that I haven’t actually fallen behind on the running! It’s just been a bit difficult to post the updates because I haven’t followed the training plan exactly like it’s written – but I’m mostly back on […]
WDW marathon training – week 9

We are on week 5 of marathon training! I tried to get all of my runs in earlier in the week. That way for next week I’ll be able to get more of my runs in early on – since I’m leaving for Disney on Tuesday! My plan for next week is to do the […]
WDW marathon training – week 4
Things I learned while running this week: it’s difficult to catch pokemon while you’re actually on a run. However, running is a very good way to hatch eggs. Also, taking a quick warm-up/cool down lap around the block is another good time to hunt pokemon. Finally, if you really want to catch a Jigglypuff and […]
WDW marathon training – week 3
Sometimes the toughest part about training for a run is finding the time to fit in all the runs! That’s one of the reasons why I’m a big fan of the Galloway training program. He generally takes it pretty easy on you. Only 2 short runs and 1 long run are required each week. I […]
