Mike1905's Journal

My training is on schedule for the hilly half marathon. If it weren't so frigid and icy in Chicago this winter, I'd be outside running up and down hills already. My sister and I came up with a great idea for me to run up and down the 10 story parking garage near where I work. There's no ice to slip on and it's safe, but my cold weather gear is only comfortable if it's above 25 degrees outside. Hills I'll do. Freezing hills? I'll wait till March, thanks. I want to run in the half marathon, not win it.

If you're interested, this is the sort of schedule I am supposed to run: Mon: 4 miles; Wed: 4 miles; Thurs: 4 miles; Sat: 7 miles. 

But I usually do just one or two midweek runs. I would do more, but I am also trying to spend more time with my friends. My friends are important too!
