Training Log
Training came to a crashing stop this week as the entire Sanfelippo clan came down with strep throat! I did manage, however, to lose 5 pounds in the process. Hoping to run this weekend.
With 23 weeks to go to Chicago and 18 until the training marathon I am running in St. Louis, I am finding the attached schedule to be a good one.

Thursday May 25 - Just over 21 weeks to Chicago. Reset training by making the Lewis & Clark Marathon Sept 17th (in St. Louis) a half. Will tack on 6/7 miles to the back of it - allowing me a 20 mile run 5 weeks ahead of Chicago.
June 8 - Training is back and on a roll! Monday cross-trained on the elliptical and played softball Tuesday night. Ran a quick 3.5 last night and rebounded with 4 miles this morning. I have successfully tweaked the diet over the past 2 weeks and weight is starting to drop.
June 21 - continuing to follow program I posted from Fleet Feet. Ran 4 this morning at a "soft pace" of 11 minute miles. Finding the softer pace during my week day runs more enjoyable and it doesn't seem to impact long runs dramatically. Will be running in Detroit and Tyler, TX next week.
June 23 - 4.5 miles completed this am - kept the "weekday" pace of 11 mm. Golf lesson Saturday, 7 mile run on Sunday.
June 24 - cross trained with a golf lesson. Good news - my pro didn't tell me to give up the game. Bad news - I am still not hitting my drive 290 - maybe after the next lesson.
June 25 - scratched the run - plantar fascitis flaming up again.
June 26 - ran 2 miles before the fascitis reared it's head. Did some weights and cooled down with some stretching. Owe 4 miles tomorrow before heading to Detroit.
July 16 - 14 weeks from today is the run! Training is coming along, but I am getting nervous - don't want to be the weakest in the chain! Had my last drink (a Beck's) until after the marathon. I am also modifying the diet a little bit. I may not be the friendliest guy over the next 14 weeks, but I know it is the right thing to do. I know I won't get to Wally's time (9 minute miles are a pipe dream for me), but I want to be below 9:30.
July 27 - The wek so far has been a bust! Got Patty home from the hospital today and haven't been able to run as I have become dad, mom, and nurse. (Bad time to give up the vino!) Need to get a run in sooner than later - hope to push out 13 this Sunday am.
