Training for a Marathon is Hard!

I haven't even signed up for a marathon and I'm already complaining! If I end up actually doing this, then it is going to be a LONG road for me.

I took some time yesterday to put together a training calendar for the next 12 weeks. I decided to sleep on it before making any rash decisions. Then I spent the whole night dreaming that I couldn't get through my training runs and never completed a marathon. I was not comforted when I woke up this morning.

However, I did vow to stick to the calendar. With a busy week ahead, and no official gym membership, it is going to be a difficult week to start.

I was supposed to run today, but I can't sign up for the gym until tomorrow...so that means running outside. And the high today was 104. I waited until almost 8pm before I left and it was still hot as blazes. But I made it through a run in the heat (it was almost dark by the time I arrived home) and in darn good time!
