Doesn’t everyone take a limo to the start of a half marathon?

  6. It’s funny — at first, I hated being on a structured running plan when I was in marathon training mode. I am very much a run when you want, don’t when you don’t want to kind of runner. So to be on a structured plan felt foreign and sometimes I got so stressed, I’d start obsessing about the miles. It took about a month until I settled into a groove and learned to appreciate the training plan and not obsess over it. So now, I actually DO miss training…but am still very much in the ‘After Marathon” mode and loving that. I will say that I hope you find a strength traning ‘thing’ that you love…it’s so important as a runner to incorporate strength!! You know I’m a huge fan of barre work…and I know you’ve tried it before, I say give it another shot — maybe you’ll love it more the next time??
