My first marathon

No, I didn't run it yet, but I'm working towards the Providence Marathon in May. Mapped out my training plan - I used their half-marathon training plan back when I ran my PB so I figured I'd start there. Week 4 starts today.

Continuing to ramp up on the mileage - I'm at 84 miles through Feb 5 (with 3 more to be added tonight). January finished at 68 miles - not too shabby - so that means I'm sitting at 16 miles through 5 days of Feb - ahead of the 13.5 mile pace if I was doing 2.7 each day!

Add in my walking miles and fuggedaboudit - I'm doing 3+ miles with the dog 4 or 5 times a week lately - I've already walked 15 miles with him in Feb and over 42 miles this year, for a self-propelled total of 126 miles in 36 days (3.5 miles per day on average).

• Jan (complete) - 68 running, 27 walking, 95 overall
• Feb (in progress) - 16 running, 15 walking, 31 overall
• Total (in progress) - 84 running, 42 walking, 126 overall
