I must be crazy…

I’m seriously contemplating doing the Hal Higdon Advanced Half Marathon training Program for this year’s Lincoln Half-Marathon. This year marks my 3rd consecutive Lincoln Half, and then 2 weeks later I’m running the Fargo Half with Brooke. The program looks intensive and busy, but I did the intermediate last year and I got faster, so I know that doing speed and hill work while adding another day of running would just mean that I would turn into an even better runner. I like challenging myself physically. And now that I’ve run a Full Marathon, the half seems like no big deal! πŸ™‚

Monday marks 18 weeks until the Lincoln Half. With that time frame I’m kicking myself that I didn’t sign up for the Full. I legitimately like training for races. I must be insane.

I’m guessing I will do it. Its a 12 week program like all the others, so stay tuned for a decision on that one.

In other news, I’m thisclose to my 900 miles for the year goal.Β I ran 3 last night, and then drug my butt out of bed this morning for 7 more. I have 2 more to go until I hit that magic number!! It seems so easy now. Just 2 miles. Depending on how I feel, I might run them tonight after work, or in the morning. I’m now trying to hit 920 for the year. But 900 is still the goal, everything else is just gravy. πŸ™‚

Have a great day friends!
