2012 DC Marathon – Training Week 2 (14 wks to go)
Completed week two, and there is good news and bad news.
The bad news is I only lose a 1/2 pound this week. This is very upsetting, and doesn’t make sense to me. Kept away from sweets, snacks, beer and watch my portion sizes – but to no avail. Also I ran 17 miles is by itself is 1,700 calories – which is more then a half pound by itself. Any way I reset my goal for next week – and will redouble my efforts to make it happen.
The good news – is that I improved my adverage speed from 9:58 to 9:33 per mile. This is so close to my goal of 9:30 per mile – I will press on next week to 9:15 per mile.
