Marathon Training Commence...
Well, here it is 1 year away - my first marathon and celebrating my 50th birthday next year... ALL IN VEGAS!!! So this week was the beginning of my marathon training.... I do have to say that I am SCARED SPITLESS!!! I am EXCITED at the same time! I know that this is normal, but I have to settle down and just take one day, one run interval, one hurdle at a time... I know that I have to get out of my own way and my own head - from what I've been told by experienced marathoners is that it's 80% mental, 20% training/nutrition... It's the training part that I'm nervous about, so to speak... I know that I can do the miles, it's the DISCIPLINE and DOING THE MILES when I DON'T FEEL LIKE IT - that's what I'm afraid of or the most nervous about... This has been on my bucket list since 2015 - THIS is the year that I lose my weight and do this marathon... I know that the best plan of action is being consistent and when it's time for me to run ...
