Our Jedi Master suggested following the 3plus2 plan in Run Less Run Faster (Amazon Link) to prepare for not only the ING Marathon in November, but also our full race calendar for the months leading up to the BIG day, which include a few half-marathons. Our first half on the plan is on Sunday, April 3rd in Central Park...The MORE (NYRR's MORE page). Even though it feels like winter will never end, the snow will never stop falling and the pavement will never be ice free, April will be here before we know it and we are already on Week 10 of our 16 week training schedule! So yesterday I took advantage of having a sick, crying and feverish baby on my lap all day and bookmarked my book, adding tabs to all the important pages, highlighting tons of important pages and photocopying the training schedule. I left room for notes on my photocopy and wrote out exactly what I need to run for Key Run Workout #1, which seems to be the most complicated. I was able to figure out exactly what I need to set my TM to get to the correct pace and have it all written out so there is less thinking to do on those days! So I thank you, sick little one, for giving me the opportunity to take a break from my usual running around and figure this all out...
