I am thrilled that I complied with my plan (as adjusted by me ahead of time) for two straight weeks. Inevitably, as a trial lawyer and a dad, life happens and disrupts my plans. That happened in week 3. I took my scheduled day off on Monday, and completed my scheduled 3 miler on Tuesday. Then I had to work super late on Wednesday and did not complete the scheduled 4 miler. On Thursday, I was too tired either to make up the four miler or to do the scheduled three miler. Friday was my wife's birthday dinner, and fatigue from that almost-all-nighter was still kicking my butt. Finally, on Saturday, in lieu of the scheduled 2 miler, I ran 7 miles to make up Wednesday and Thursday's runs. I took Sunday off, and will make up the weekend's 2 miler and 6 miler today, a scheduled day off, and then I will be back on track to begin Week 4's training tomorrow.
M- OFF
T - 3 mi
W - missed (3 mi)
Th - missed (4 mi)
F - OFF
S - 7 mi (make up of W and Th)
S - OFF
Total: 10 miles
I am a commercial litigator, husband and father of two, living and working in Miami, Florida, who has become a passionate amateur runner and triathlete. This blog is about the nitty gritty details - race reports, training, gear, nutrition, and cross-training. The title comes from my sons' reaction to a video my wife took of me finishing my first half marathon - "Daddy Running!" It has been a pleasure to set an example of an active lifestyle for them, and to be cheered on by them.
