And yes, squats and lunges are super good for you - I sneak my squats in while drying my hair and lunges on conference calls (interesting in heels), etc. It makes them go by much faster.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2280571059554402649.post-79602348675450136172010-05-12T09:33:53.199-05:002010-05-12T09:33:53.199-05:00Jessica is awesome!

Maybe you just run what you want for the next couple of months or run for time with a long run on the weekend (or on Mondays, I think that's when you do them). Just an idea. :)Kerriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00538129698829932559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2280571059554402649.post-42648862030173056432010-05-12T08:55:20.357-05:002010-05-12T08:55:20.357-05:00Hi!

I'm running my first half on Sunday, another one at the end of June and my first marathon in November. I might try some combination of your options 1 and 2! I'd love any feedback you have!<br /><br />Keep it up with your training!Christy Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15174474126186536847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2280571059554402649.post-72689742021519362062010-05-11T14:15:55.814-05:002010-05-11T14:15:55.814-05:00Yay for good friends who understand you!!!Yay for good friends who understand you!!!Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02051001544778172019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2280571059554402649.post-77553581873175772882010-05-11T11:45:28.196-05:002010-05-11T11:45:28.196-05:00I am glad to see you are back to lunges.

Between the 2 go for LONG and mid-long runs with Tall Mom to stay is peak shape... :) Sound good??Mel -Tall Mom on the Runhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03777751504773574393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2280571059554402649.post-47019571861430800372010-05-11T10:08:38.197-05:002010-05-11T10:08:38.197-05:00I think I am planning on doing what MissZippy sugg...I think I am planning on doing what MissZippy suggested, but let me know what you decide.<br />This is going to be fun.

You could also repeat a preceding week for the same effect (i.e., week 7 again after week 8). Best of luck in all 3 races! Sounds like a well-planned season.KovasPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03401299101228398072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2280571059554402649.post-46769954945237540002010-05-11T08:23:31.828-05:002010-05-11T08:23:31.828-05:00I think they are spread out enough to focus on bot...I think they are spread out enough to focus on both.

I dont usually specifically train for just a half, its usually just part of my marathon training. if it was me, i would just combine them, you'll be able to run that far at that point anyway so just add some speed work to the marathon plan? maybe?Bethany + Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15378086868631816980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2280571059554402649.post-21796045382952393842010-05-11T06:27:19.614-05:002010-05-11T06:27:19.614-05:00yeah! glad you were able to get out!

A half marathon (or any other race) that came up during marathon training was looked at as a training run (even adding mileage right before the event, if necessary). Thankfully, marathon training was making me faster overall, so I was still able to PR every now and then during a half or 10K.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
