So I have done NOTHING regarding organized training since Cedar Point. I ran a marathon the month after and felt good. But that's it.
So I am almost at the point where I want to train again... but believe me, I am not there yet.
I am going to take another full week off to get to December before I start training.
Now, this guy here Jeff stated his goal for next year... pretty lofty. I too make goals... only mine are actually fun goals... Jeff, sorry your goal sounds like a major suffer fest.
My goal for next spring? Sub 5 minute mile.
I know how I am going to achieve it training wise... but I am still going back on forth on my actual running training plan.
I don't plan on running a 4:59 mile either. I plan on crushing my goal. I got low 5's w/out proper speed work, so I know this is a feasible goal.
Why is this a fun goal? Because technically my workouts will only be like 15-30 minutes long. Ummm hello?!?! How awesome is that?
Yup, so there you have it. December will be the start of my base training. My biggest concern is my left calf muscle, I pulled it a few weeks back pushing our jet ski into the garage and it still flares up on our hikes... assuming some ART will fix that up right away though.
Until December... Happy Thanksgiving and thanks for reading!

When you said you were going to do shorter stuff, I didn't think it would be a MILE! :) Dude, sub-5 is ridiculous. You can do it, and I can't wait to hear about it. Enjoy your turkey.
I like your goal
Hope you and H enjoy your Thanksgiving
PLUS... Jeff gives up beer and wine. What fun is that???
I can't wait to see you run a sub 5. I love that you are that fast. :)
That is fast! I will go for a sub 5 minute kilometer :) I have many big goals for next year. I'm turning 50 so I'm going big.
Sub-5? Is that a running goal or something?? We already know you are well below 5 minutes in other aspects - haha
Happy Thanksgiving!
Sub 5 minute mile!! You are freaking awesome! Careful with that calf!!! ART is awesome. And painful.
Happy Thanksgiving! I like your positive attitude and strong will power. All the best for the Sub 5 minute mile!
