Training for the half

So this half marathon is creeping it's ugly head up right around the corner. Crap. I did it last year, so I know I can do it again, but just like anything, the hardest part is getting out and doing it. 

In December, it sounded like such a good idea. I ran a little that month without issue. In January I was gung ho about training. I ran 18.43 miles that month which was 3 more miles in than I did in Jan. 2011. But February was a bust. I ran just 6 miles this year compared to 23 in Feb. 2011. 


I've decided that I need to push myself a little more this month. No one's going to do this for me. I'm doing a 6 mile run for the Wilderness Park Run for the Bridges in Lincoln in 11 days and I think it will be a good precursor to the half. I ran a 10k in Alabama last St. Patricks day too, so I think it'll be neat to see if I'm any better this year compared to last.


Time will tell I guess.
