Chicago Marathon T-Minus 3 months...

So, I havent been posting my running/training logs here lately...mainly due to me not running more than around 5-10 miles a week as of late:( That is going to change for the Chicago Marathon is now T-minus 3 months and counting. Oct. 7th, 2007 is the Chicago marathon this year:) It will be my first Chicago marathon and I am pretty excited to get the chance to run in a marathon of this magnitude.

Anyway, recent running log from this past week is here:

7/2: Ran 3 miles around Earlywine park easy pace....
7/3: Ran 2 miles
7/4: 2 miles
7/5: Ran 3 miles
7/6: Off Rest day
7/7: Ran 5 miles at Lake Hefner...
7/8: 2 miles in neighborhood

Week total: 17 miles for the week.

I am doing a training program out of Runners World this time around...with more emphasis at strength training for at least 2 days a week. Intitial goal for Chicago is under 4 hours which would be my 3rd marathon and a personal best.

I am in week 3 of training;)

I'll post a schedule of the proposed training here later....
