The first competition of the season will be a one mile race at the New Balance Games at the Armory in NYC on January 25. To get ready for it we have been doing a few workouts at our goal mile pace, which is somewhere between 3:54 and 3:58. I'm ready to go out and have some fun with all of my teammates that are racing, but once the gun goes off it's all business.
One of the additions I'd like to start making to my blog is a weekly log of sorts. I'm going to be posting my training including workouts, mileage, and competitions every Monday. It will be a good way for me to not only paint a picture of my season for you all, but also to help me log my training because I can be a little forgetful sometimes! I won't always post every single time on an interval but I'll try to keep the logs as detailed as possible. So here we go!
