i’m sorry i’ve been gone. i’ve slacked. disgustingly and it has had negative mental side effects. i’ve run twice since my marathon. once 10 days after, once christmas eve. but i have new goals which means back to training!
i would like to do another marathon, but that won’t be till the fall again i’m guessing. maybe even vegas…we’ll see. that’s neither here nor there. well…it might be there.
step 1 on my goal list is speed. i need to learn how to speed train for a bit so when i do eventually go for marathon two i will feel faster and better. this also means a better diet. lose weight, feel lighter, run faster. confidence.
now for the goals- no matter what i will do the warrior dash in pennsylvania in june. 3.5 miles, obstacles, seems kind of fun. then i found out there is a tough mudder run in PA in april. 9 miles. seems much more hardcore. hell- one obstacle is basically being electrocuted.
now these are not “serious” runs. they are serious. they will take training and prep and such. especially the 9-miler. but these aren’t like my other runs. i do plan on picking up a half marathon here and there granting i feel like i can do it better than before (under 1:42), but these are my definite goals. i’ll know about the tough mudder by january 9th, since it is rather pricey to register. but hell- it looks like a fucking riot.
keep moving.
