My biggest mileage week came to an end Sunday May 15th.
I put in 26 running miles, including an 11 mile trail run through FLSP, a speed workout mid-week, and a 10k close out run on Sunday. I also put in 5 miles on the recumbent bike and a mile speed walk at work.
I feel pretty solid with little muscle soreness and hope to continue to increase my weekly mileage until I am consistently putting in 25-30 miles per week. I also have a goal of running further little by little until I put in a 15 mile and a 20 mile run ........................I will then know if a marathon is in my future. If so, it will likely be Shamrock 2012 or maybe OBX 2012 or even pushing it back a bit and doing something next May. Those are lofty goals that right now are distant at best.
Happy trails everyone.
It took me 25 years to decide to run again after being a high school track sprinter. My wife was doubtful and asked that question. She had already experienced 25 years living with a marathon running father and now her husband was going to start running. I have done it. I have become a runner.I will attempt to document my experiences and share interesting tidbits along the way
