Staying on Track
I'm still sticking to my new plan of 3 short runs, one long per week. I only ran 7 last weekend for my long run but I did get 4 on Monday, 5 on Wednesday and another 4 today so I'm happy about that. Getting my long run mileage back up to where I'd like it to be (a consistent 10 every weekend) has been a lot harder than I anticipated. All the indoor running really has hurt me, I think. It always surprises me just how much harder it is to get the same amount of miles in outside. There is no substitute for wind, hills, cars and goose poop. But hopefully if I stick with these short runs, I'll get to where I want to be soon. Patience is not something I was born with.

Thanks Chia...good to hear from someone who has DONE IT!
Feener - go for it!! I'll be 38 next week and my kids are SO in the way. It's all about patience and a lot of hope!
