Now that the Shamrock is scrapped, I need to form a new plan. What I want to do is spend the winter and spring building and doing some smaller races. I think a 10K is a good distance for me to work on.
As I get closer to summer, I would then look at a half marathon to see how I am set for the longer distances. Slowly building time and distance will be the key to a successful marathon. Looking in the Sept.-Nov. time frame for a marathon. I know I won't do Chicago, as I have banned races in the Windy City from my routine.
I don't have a race in mind, but I think I have some time to plan that. I know the key is a slow build.
Part of the fun now is figuring out which races to do. I actually enjoy going to race websites and look things over. I check out course maps, elevation maps...is there a medal? Shirts I don't care about, but the bling is a key component.
What races are you all working towards?
