Marathon Training - week '3'
Found a good beginner's marathon training program in Women's Running Magazine (May/June 10 edition) - 16 weeks; started the program previously to train for Rocket City Marathon in Huntsville in December and made it to week 6. However, stopped training for awhile (overdoing in gardening a few weekends ago that kept me from training). Found out a couple of weeks ago that registration for Rocket City closed earlier than expected. So in order to complete the program at least in time for the Feb marathon, I jumped to week 3.
Week 3 (Day 2 - rested Sunday, aka Day 1) of marathon training - plans to run 26.2 with Donna in Jacksonville, FL in Feb 11 and Georgia Marathon in Mar 11.
Run/walk 3:00/2:00 (4.5 mph/4.0 mph) - felt good for most of the run: 3.1 mi, 43:00 (14:00/mil).
5:00 cooldown (48:25) - total: 3.31 mi, 539 cal.
Surprised legs felt good considering running 10K on Saturday (didn't run Sunday).
After this, did a few upper body weight exercises.
