Well, I have been traing for a half marathon (silently = not blogging... I know bad me).  Anyway, I have been following Higdon's intermediate plan.  Haven't missed a run although my times have slipped since training for the Go Marathon.  My wife ran the Rock & Roll  half with some colleagues from school last week and I really didn't have feelings either way about not doing it.   I feel like I am in pretty good shape (still) but my times are not what I would like them to be.  I decided, after my marathon, if I want to get serious about this running thing I really needed to lose about 20 - 30 more pounds (obviously hasn't happened).   Ran my 12.1 miles in 1:42 ish which would have been my PR if a marathon was only 12.1 miles.  Secretly want to PR next week but it may not be in the Cards.  Speaking of, still completely bummed about those *#%# Giants as well as no hockey.   It could be a long winter.
