I am currently in the middle of my marathon training schedule. I was scheduled to run 8 miles on Saturday, but I only ran 2 miles due to lack of time. Then I was scheduled to run 17 miles on Sunday. I did actually run/walk these miles. This Thursday night I am running a stair climb event for Cystic Fibrosis. It’s 19 stories. Since I have been training for distance events, this will be radically different for me. Yesterday was a cross training day for me, so I did aikido. Today I was scheduled to run 4 miles, so I ran it first thing in the morning to leave as much recovery time before the stair climb. I was scheduled to run 9 miles tomorrow night, but I am going to skip that. Then I have the stair climb on Thursday evening. I scheduled to run 4 miles on Thursday as well. If I get home early enough, and am not totally exhausted, then I will run the 4 miles Thursday night when I get home. This week is a cutback week, so I am scheduled to run 9 miles on Saturday, and only 12 miles on Sunday. I love that! ONLY 12 miles! LOL! Jeez, things have changed over the last six months!
