Jason and I have periodically participated in running events, but we’ve picked up the training over the last year (thanks very expensive GPS watches!) and I started this space to track our results and accomplishments. Jason finished his first half marathon earlier this year and is training for his first marathon this fall. Health allowing, I will be training for a half marathon this fall.
Our goals are to strengthen our bodies, be healthy, not get hurt, and have fun! We definitely don’t have a strict training regimen, and I’ve been hit with some minor injuries and pain, but we are getting better about strength- and cross-training. I especially am focusing on the mental aspect and trying not to think too much about improving my pace or time, but to enjoy the process. A more long term goal is to branch out to triathlons, but right now the training schedule and new gear we’d need is overwhelming.
We’ll be updating this list as we participate in more events, so stay tuned!

May 24 – Madison Half Marathon Spring. I had hopes of training for this, but never got much started since I was dealing with a painful knee. Runner’s knee, I presume, so I’m trying to focus on strength and stretching.

November 8 – Madison Marathon Fall. This was a tougher course than expected, and my lack of training down the stretch meant I was dealing with a lot of knee pain for most of it. So I definitely didn’t have the race I was hoping for. Mentally I was struggling and I try as I might I could not get into a positive attitude, but it was a learning experience and I still pushed through and finished strong! Jason only had to wait 45 minutes for me to finish! We both had 2/10 mi extra on our watches but I went with the official times, even if the pace may be a little off.
