I have had so many obstacles this Month all of which were not insurmountable I know but Im not a professional athlete so there is no point putting myself in harms way just to train.
To name a few in the past 4 weeks,
- Ive had tonsillitis
- Xmas
- New Year
- Working away from home
- And snow
I'm not one for making excuses but these things have really just messed me up. The big Issue at the moment is the snow and dangerous condition of the pavements. I was really hoping that by today they would be clear but snow flurries last night really screwed that up. So fingers crossed for Friday.
The plan moving forward is;
Run 3 times a week and increase Mileage by 10% per week until I get to week 10 at 6.6 miles then stick there. This is all in prep for my 10k on May 5th so I have plenty of time.
| Runs | Miles Per Run | Total Miles | Time | |
| Week 1 | 3 | 2 | 6 | 28 |
| Week 2 | 3 | 2.2 | 6.6 | 30.8 |
| Week 3 | 3 | 3 | 9 | 42 |
| Week 4 | 3 | 3.3 | 9.9 | 46.2 |
| Week 5 | 3 | 4 | 12 | 56 |
| Week 6 | 3 | 4.4 | 13.2 | 61.6 |
| Week 7 | 3 | 5 | 15 | 70 |
| Week 8 | 3 | 5.5 | 16.5 | 77 |
| Week 9 | 3 | 6 | 18 | 84 |
| Week 10 | 3 | 6.6 | 19.8 | 92.4 |
| Week 11 | 3 | 6.6 | 19.8 | 92.4 |
| Week 12 | 3 | 6.6 | 19.8 | 92.4 |
| Week 13 | 3 | 6.6 | 19.8 | 92.4 |
| Week 14 | 3 | 6.6 | 19.8 | 92.4 |
In addition to building up my training this will also give a goal for 2013 a kick in the pants.
Anyway with me luck.
