Training Updates

I began my training back in September. Each week, I will update this page with each of my runs, which will help me not only record all of my progress, but to keep me on track too!!

I’m using two of Hal Higdon’s programs, Novice 0 to 5k, followed by Novice Half Marathon training. I’ve finished the first portion and started the Half the first week in November.
