Half-marathon's a-comin'

Ellyn Ritterskamp

Week 3 of the half-marathon training schedule I chose: today is a 3-miler and tomorrow a 5-miler. Today's forecast looks less oppressive than some lately, so it should be a great run.

Tomorrow I will probably wait until after dark (I have a 6 p.m. football draft), and go when it's cooler.

I have been loving the recovery walks built in to this plan, though I have not been so religious about the days labeled "cross-training or rest". This week, they drop the "or rest," so I will be swimming.

Keep on keepin' on, peeps.
