And the training begins

Since deciding to run a half-marathon back in November, I haven't truly started my training. I have basically been doing my normal routine when it came to running (with the exception of one 10-mile run to see if I could do it). Occasionally I would add an extra mile, but nothing with any rhyme or reason to prepare.

A few weeks ago a friend invited me to a running club that meets every Saturday morning. After three weeks this has been a good way to hold me accountable and to kick off my weekends. This has been a good motivator, but I still wasn't following through with everything I needed to do. I'm trying to create a training schedule to help me, and I have some ideas. I'll look online for some advice, but it probably won't become more certain until I decide which race to run.

After yesterday's running club, I decided to buckle down and truly start training. So today I drove down to Mission Bay for a longer run than I have done in a few weeks. In the end it ended up being 6 miles, which is a good place to start for my long runs.
