Training Time: Part Two

The Bronze Fonz gives running two thumbs up!

The running continues! This weekend I did another six-mile run. It was pretty rough. But I am looking at adding a mile each week, plus an increase from three weekly runs to four. Here is our new training schedule. The Chancellor wrote it. How cool is that?

Twelve miles. Wow. It is hard to believe that I will work my way up to that over the next two months. I do not even want to guess what July, August, and September will look like. Eep!

I am hoping that I can work it out to throw a few 5Ks in the mix for some of those 3 milers. Since I am new to the race setting, I think it will help me to get in the mindset of what the race day will be like, even if I am just running to finish. Plus they are fun and you get cool t-shirts!
