DAY .:002a

Another staple of my conversation with Steve-O yesterday was a guy who has decided to run a marathon, and is using this training schedule. I think that’s the schedule I’m going to follow as well. That gives me 18 weeks to find a marathon (or halfie) to run, sign up, and train for.

Just to give you an idea as to what I’m working with…I’ve never really been the super-athletic type. I was usually last guy picked on a team in elementary school (And some girls got picked before me), but I wasn’t crazy overweight by any means. I’ve just never considered myself “athletic”. And for those of you that can stomach it, (use EXTREME caution) : ) Here’s a pic I took last night after my first run in all my shirtless, pasty-white glory.



And that, my friends…..is what I intend to change.

You know, you might should do some cross training...like biking...in my class.

I mean, the new release that I'm about to start has a Kirk Franklin song as the warm up.

How can you possibly resist that?

Definitely.

I want a good mix of lifting/running, but I may make Mondays or Wednesdays my "biking" day.

Lemme think it through some more :)
