2.86 miles - 41 minutes

First of all - stretching is our friend, right Baloo?

Man - after no running for a few days, and messing the schedule, again....I couldn't get to the 4 mile mark. I gave it a good try though. Regardless, I know now that I REALLY need to stick to my schedule in order to succeed.

That and this last week has just been....off. As you know.

So what do we do about next week?

We make it ON. :)

How? Well here we go:

M: 40 minutes
T: 30 minute weights 
W: Rest
Th: 40 minutes
F: 30 minute weights
S: CORNFEST - I'll be doing a 4.0 mile run!
Su: Rest

And as for the home improvements - they're coming along. What I might do, if you'd all like - is show some pictures of BEFORE we moved in - AFTER we moved in - and then AFTER the paint. :) Are you interested in our tale of home creation?

MAIN STREET AWAITS!

  1. Glimpses of the past... Mr. Excuse has begun to raise his ugly head again - "My alarm didn't go off", "Family Problems", "Upset Stomach", "Haven't ran in two days", "Didn't stretch", "My dog ate my training schedule", - no wait you haven't used that last one, YET! Starting your 5th week on Mr. Bingham's 3 day a week plan and still not able to crank out a 4 mile long run doesn't bode well for reaching the 13.1 mile mark by December...

  2. I have to agree with the mgreene. Those excuses are starting to show their ugly little head yet again.

  3. I agree TOO. That's why I'm using this next week to get back to basics and FOCUS on form, substance, and NO excuses. Trust me - I'm VERY aware of this.

  4. Keep that focus up and don't lose it my friend. You already know that great things happen when you KEEP MOVING FORWARD so dust your self off and DON'T LOOK BACK!!!

    As for Casa Disney, sure post some pics.
