With just about 11 weeks to go to the Virginia Beach, Rock and Roll Half Marathon I suppose its time to start a more formal training program. I've been running between 20 and 25 miles a week since the Marathon in April and have managed to keep a long run of between 8 and 12 miles each week since then as well.
I'm working hard on my time averaging better than 8 minute miles on all my short runs and between 8 and 8:20 minute miles on the long runs. I'm looking forward to getting to Ireland at the end of next week, it will be a pleasant break to be able to train in cooler (60-70 degree) weather for a few weeks instead of the stifling heat of Northern Virginia.
One final thought... I'm still about 30 seconds a mile faster than Jenny! Sorry dear.
