That’s right, I’m back on the Robie Creek Half Marathon training wagon again. And like last year, I have a half-baked training plan that basically has me adding 10 minutes each week to my long distance run. For instance, yesterday I ran for 1:50, the week before 1:40, the week before that 1:30.
This year, I am going to break up that plan with a decent distance run in the hills. Next week, I’ll plan on a hour plus long run in the Boise foothills.
The only wildcard in the whole operation is that my left knee hurts after these long runs. Might be old (older) age kicking in or a old ski accident aggravating me. Who knows.
I can tell that I haven’t gotten serious about losing weight yet this year. My extra curricular eating activities have not been curbed. When I say extra curricular, I mean the eating I do in between meals. A little snack here and there – while my weight hasn’t really gone up, it certainly isn’t going down. Time to start facing my demons and go on a cold turkey run – no in between meal snacks.
