I think starting a blog is a good way to keep on track with my training for the Chicago Half Marathon in September. I found a few good training plans online and through friends, and it seems like the consistent part to them all was about 3-4 days of running a week along with a few days of cross training, so that's what I'm prepared to do.
Today's run was on the treadmill at the gym. I like running on treadmills for the accurate time/distance tracking, but sometimes it's really hard to get motivated to go to the gym when it is absolutely gorgeous outside, and I mean gorgeous! I plan on running outside at least once a week, sometimes more(weather permitting). I was really in the groove today on my run. I felt good, and I probably could have stepped it up just a notch, but I'm easing my way into the week.
My snacking wasn't too bad today either. I ate frozen waffles for breakfast, had an apple and yogurt for snack, and then had a bowl of butternut squash for lunch with a few crackers. Looks like I'll be needed some mad veggies for dinner.
Great start to training!
