Had to take a couple of days off in fear of injuring my calves. Training on a treadmill sucks. It's either I run at night outside on the road in California as the weather is cooling (could get hit by a car or get sick) OR run inside a gym on a treadmill and hurt my knees and tendons. I think my form is the problem though; that and my weight is still a bit high for a "typical distance runner" but I'm working on that. My goal is to hit 165 lbs by the end of January. I really like the treadmills that are at Elizabeth's apartment complex, but driving there everyday can get costly.
Thanks for reading!

Week 2 - Sick...
I was sick and miserable the entire week. I did however do something I've never done before! I actually took time to recover and didn't workout through the sickness! I have a history of working through being sick or an injury and making it worse. Go me!

The "Half" Gauge...
I would like to compete in the HB Half Marathon before tackling the OC Marathon:
Huntington Beach Half Marathon - Feb 6
Orange County Marathon - May 1
With competing in the half I hope to gain back my racing mentality I lost after High School. I also want to see where I'm at and if I can handle my marathon race pace for half the distance.
