Race ya to the finish

Since I'm doing the Canyonlands Half in Moab, UT on March 20th, I'm on a tighter schedule than everyone else... so consider yourself lucky. Yesterday was my 9 week mark til the (first) big race. My only goal is to beat my last year's time of 2:34... Hopefully since I've already been training this will be possible.

My training schedule is here (except my days will be swapped). It was a rough week getting back into the swing of things, but I ran a total of 17 miles.

From my vast (HA!) running experience, I'm learning the importance of the following things:

healthy eating
(and boy have I been HUNGRY the more I run)

plenty of rest

and
drinking lots and lots... of water that is.
