I've been so busy with training, soccer practices and work, I haven't had a lot of time to update.
It's been going well. Here was the original plan for another marathon
And here's the real training:
Mondays had to be a rest day since both boys had soccer practice in different locations at the same time. Thursdays- I used to do spinning but decided family time is more important, Fridays- I run after work before getting the boys. Sundays used to be my long run day but we have soccer games.
I apologize for the formating- I can't figure out what I did that makes the spacing weird with some of the weeks!

I've decided that the e-gels from cranksports.com work for me. I'm not sure I really like the flavors, but since the consistency is not so thick it's easy to suck them down quickly. Last week I tried the Cliff shots gel- yuck- I had to chew it! No thank you! Plus I got a side stitch every time I had one. |
