In Training!

I am currently training for my third endurance race: a 10K & half-marathon in one weekend! Join me on my crazy journey to the finish line!

Here we go again...

As I was looking at my calendar this morning, I realized that I'm just two weeks away from officially beginning my next training for another endurance race.  I'm registered for the "Glass Slipper Challenge" for the Disney Princess Half-Marathon Weekend in February!  Part of me is ready to get back to driving my friends crazy with my constant talk of running and training, and part of me is a little scared due to the ante up with two races in one weekend.

For those who don't know, the GSC is where you run a 10K on Saturday, February 22nd, followed by a half-marathon on Sunday, February 23rd.  I've recently had friends that completed the Dumbo Double Dare at Disneyland earlier this month, so I know it can be done.  I've just been frustrated by the lack of training schedules available on the RunDisney site.  So, I've taken the DDD training log and adjusted the dates to fit for my races.  My goals for the races are pretty simple:  10K--finish in a non-embarrasing time and enjoy myself; Half-marathon--PR under 3:00 (missed it by 4 minutes last time).  From the pictures from previous Princess races, I'm sure my "enjoy myself" goal will be met easily.  The other two goals?  Only time will tell.

I'm going to try to do a better job blogging this time around.  I also give permission to bug me if I'm not posting regularly.  Until next time... :)
