So I signed up for the marathon yesterday and thought that I should probably get a little more serious about logging my runs.  Hopefully this will help me recognize more of what I can do to prepare better than I did last year.  At the moment, I plan on just trying to be consistant with my milage.  Lately I have been a little on and off with running everyday.  So for the first few weeks or so I want to be having lower milage but making sure I get the consistancy down.  After that I would like to up the miles as October gets closer. 

Today, while running with the team I wasn't feeling the greatest.  I think that I need to be drinking more water.  I was feeling a little light-headed and my stomach was a little queezy.  But aside from that, it was a great workout.  I worked with a few different groups running either 1000's or 800's.  I am really impressed with a lot of the girls this year.  They are running great, both individually as well as a team.

6.5 - Artic Circle W/ extention -- I felt really good this morning.  I ran over to the high school so I could run with the team.  And did an extention with Roberts.  And finished by running back home.  Had a nice discussion about Chemistry...  Toward the end of the run, my legs were starting to feel a little tired.

3 - Sandbergs -- Another easy day today.  Pre-race workout for the team.  My legs were feeling a little tender today, as well as my left arch.  But while running they felt a lot better.  I am thinking this is a sign that I need to be stretching a lot more and making sure that I am taking more care of my body, even when I am only doing low milage.
