Day 3 of training for the Buffalo 26.2 Mile marathon. This is the first actual day on the schedule where running is involved.
I ran one mile today in 13:02…not exactly lighting it up. I am four pounds short of fat guy (now 196) with the hopes of getting down to 166 by the race on May 30th, 2010. I had to wait till 9pm to get the run in because I worked all day and then we had company over to visit the triplets. But, I made sure I got it done.
It’s easier to be motivated to do this when I have the Training chart handy:
