I’ve run three marathons with the same plan, so why break the streak? This is the Non-Runner’s Marathon Trainer schedule, which is probably about the minimum mileage possible. Because I’m such a slow runner, that helps keep the time commitment reasonable. And I’m not aiming for a PR… I don’t think I’ll ever break 5 hours again, but if I could at least beat my New York Marathon time (5:19), that would be fantastic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I would love to fit some races into the training schedule. Bridge of Flowers<\/a>, normally in August, hasn’t announced a date yet. Update 8\/5: cancelled, may never happen again!<\/em> The Frozen Yogurt 5K is only tentatively set for 8\/27, so I didn’t put that in yet. Update 8\/5: Frozen Yogurt is virtual again, which I’m not thrilled about, and is giving out a coupon for the brand Yasso instead of local Go-Berry, which I hate, but since I ran it virtually before I will again.<\/em> I see that Impact Racing<\/a> is currently holding some of their annual events but at different times. Also the registration fees have gone way up, which shouldn’t be a surprise I suppose. I went ahead and signed up for the Black Birch 10-miler (only the second time it’s been held and will be new to me) and the Fort Hill 5K (ran once in 2019).<\/p>\n\n\n\n My current mileage is only about 8-10\/week so I’ll start ramping up soon (targets 10 miles week of 5\/24, 11 week of 5\/31, 12 week of 6\/7, 13 week of 6\/14, 14 week of 6\/21).<\/p>\n\n\n\n I’ve run three marathons with the same plan, so why break the streak?
