First Training Run

So today was my first official training run by myself. According to the schedule, it was an easy run day. I was supposed to run 2 miles at a relatively slow pace. The 92 degree weather certainly didn't make it easier, but here are my stats.

Miles: 2
Time: 16:01
Location: Parkville High Track

Total Miles Since Training Began: 2
Total Time Since Training Began: 16:01

Tomorrow is cross training at Cabin John Ice Rink in Rockville from 8-10PM. Wednesday is a 3 mile faster run, probably on the treadmill at work or the track down the street from work.

Testing...Testing...

So, after an almost three year hiatus, I've decided to start blogging again. The main purpose behind this blog is to track my training for the Baltimore Marathon this coming October. Since I'm running with Team In Training, I have a very specific training schedule which includes four days a week of running, and two days of cross training. For my cross training, I will be doing ice skating, as my other athletic goal is to be able to play ice hockey next year. So, this here is my training blog. I'll be tracking total miles, as well as total running time. I'm sure I'll also subject you to the random meanderings of my crazy mind. So please follow along with my training, and be sure to check out my fundraising page and donate to the Leukemia and Lymphoma society to support all the people I am running for.
