62 Days To Go

I've just come back from another run and again I'm feeling good. I did the same route as yesterday, but 6 minutes slower. It was encouraging that I didn't feel out of breath or overly tired, the thing that got me was sore legs!

Tomorrow is going to be a rest day because I have to go and do a certification exam during lunch time which is a bit annoying. Hopefully Wednesday lunch time I'll be rested up and ready to take on the lunchtime route again. It's tempting to try and beat my best time every time I run, but I should be focussing on keeping my heart rate low.

Now it's time to prep some dinner for the family :)

PS. I do have some geek posts in the works, so don't lose hope!

Marathon Training Update

Since before signing up for the marathon I've been making sure that I do my running training regularly. I'm currently doing at least 4 runs during the week, pushing for 5 (all during lunch times). The route that I run around the city is approximately 6.2km, which is a good distance to cover while still having time either side of the run for prepration and showering up so that I don't offend my coworkers.

More Punishment

After more than 3 years on the bench I've decided to take the plunge again. Today I signed up for the Gold Coast Airport Marathon. The event will be held on the 6th July '08 -- which from today means I have a total of 80 more days to prepare.

I've been back into running training for a few weeks now, and have been really enjoying it. Lunch time runs are really helping since I don't have a great deal of time in the evenings to run.
