It's been a few weeks since my last post and I'm excited to share my progress with you. I recently completed a 4-mile race and was thrilled to see that I finished in a time similar to what I did 10 years ago. My fitness is definitely in a good place and I'm feeling confident about my upcoming races.
Speaking of which, I have decided to race a half marathon in 6 weeks' time. It's been a while since I've raced this distance, but I'm excited to see what I can do. I've been increasing my mileage and incorporating more speed work into my training plan, and I feel like I'm ready to take on this challenge.
As I mentioned in my previous post, I'm creating my own training plan to reflect my current fitness level and goals. It's been a process of trial and error, but I'm finding that it's helping me to push myself harder and see better results. I'm broadening my strokes and painting outside the lines, trying new workouts and strategies to see what works best for me.
It's so easy to fall into the trap of following a cookie-cutter training plan, but we're all unique and our training should reflect that. By creating a plan that's tailored to our individual needs and goals, we can push ourselves to new heights and see what we're truly capable of.
In the coming weeks, I'll be sharing more about my training plan and how I'm preparing for my upcoming races. I hope that by sharing my journey, I can inspire others to take control of their own training and push themselves to be their best. Remember, we're all capable of achieving great things if we're willing to put in the work and believe in ourselves.
