Start of 24 week training program for St. George Marathon

Posted by sambones76 under: Run.

This is the first workout of my 24 week training program through Nike Coach on the Nike plus website using the intermediate level marathon progam. As I have been doing, it consists of mostly shorter runs during the week & a long run on Sat. This will take me right up to the St. George, UT marathon, 4 Oct 08. It not only stresses distance, but has some sprints & hills worked into the program. If I complete all the runs, each month I’ll run further: April - 94 miles, May - 115 miles, June - 136 miles, July - 149 miles, Aug - 170 miles & Sept - 150 miles. I’ll try to keep to the workouts & shoot for a marathon goal time of less than 3 hours 30 minutes in the marathon, or average pace less than 8 minute/mile. Here we go!

I started running in July 2007 and haven't looked back. I love to run with my Ipod Nano & NikePlus. I have a beautiful wife & 3 wonderful kid's. I also enjoy playing the bagpipes & banjo.
