Lazy Sunday

As I set here doing nothing while watching it rain and looking at blogs I thought I would post an update. I had planned on getting out for a run this afternoon, but I just don't feel like running in the rain if I'm not in a race. I guess that makes me a fair weather runner by some runners standards. I can live with that.

Training continues. I am averaging about 25 - 30 miles a week at this time. I am very sure that as it gets closer to  November and the Monumental the miles will drastically increase. Which will mean I will need new shoes before too long. Fortunately for me, I have found the shoes that I am currently running in on Amazon for $65. That is a great price. I guess since they are getting ready to come out with the new model, they need to get rid last years model. Works for me. I will probably go ahead and get 2 pair while I'm at it.

I had asked Shawna yesterday when I needed to get serious about getting ready for a full. She said probably July. I told her that I wanted a full to feel like the mini, which to me was just another Saturday morning run. She said that I should start increasing my mileage slowly from now until then so that I am running 18 to 19 on Saturday mornings. That is kind of scary, since the one and only time I did that kind of mileage I thought I was going to die. But they do it every weekend and survive. So it can be done.

For now I think I will just relax and enjoy a lazy Sunday with the family.
