7.4 miles today

Ran at 8AM this morning from my condo over to Liberty State Park and then back around to the gym. Had a 9AM training session with my trainer Pete Isip. Pete routinely kicks my butt for about an hour a week. We're now focusing on workouts that will help my running. Lots of legs and core. Oh, what fun!

The run went really well. Finished in 1 hour and 5 minutes. Pretty good pace. Did I mention that I love Red Bull right before I run!! It gives me wings!! I always need a little caffeine and sugar. I also eat a Kashi Blueberry Waffle with peanut butter and a banana. Perfect!

I have to start running more long runs on the weekends. So, more 10 to 13 miles. My actual 18 week program starts on June 22nd. Basically running 35 to 45 miles per week with three 20 to 22 mile runs during the last 6 weeks before the marathon.
