2011 and the training begins!

It is January 3rd and I have started my training for my half marathon. I haven't ran since before Christmas because I had my gallbladder out but I am back and ready to go. I ran 2 miles this morning at 5 am on the treadmill. I want to run 4 miles by the end of January, 8 miles by the end of February, and 12 miles by the end of March. If I can do that, the 13 miles in April should be a piece of cake. I have my training schedule and my body is ready for the challenge. I have to balance the running with the Zumba and the walking I will be doing with Lisa. Zumba is Tuesdays and Thursdays and I will have shorter runs in the mornings on Mon, Wed, Fri, and a long run on Sundays (or Saturdays if my schedule is full). Everyday that we are free, Lisa and I are going to walk for an hour after work too. I also have some cross training sessions for strength.

I'm either going to be in really great shape or dead by April ; )
