29-01-2013 12:50am#1I have been reading other training logs on here for the last few months and thought i might as well start my own to keep me on track. I have really enjoyed the other training logs and have found them to be very helpful and motivating.
Me
Male, 30, living in Galway
Running Background
I have been running on and off for the last couple of years. I ran the Connemara Half Marathon in 2010 for the craic with practically no training (not a nice experience). No races since then and very inconsistent running. Got my act together towards the end of last year and started running fairly regurlarly but had no real focus or motivation.
2013
2013 is the year that i stop talking about, running, what races i'm going to run, times i'm going to do etc. and actually go out and run them. My main target in 2013 is the Dublin Marathon. I'm planning on running other races along the way. I need to have race targets in my head or i'll revert back to my old self. The following are what i have planned so far -- Craughwell 10 mile
- Connemara Half Marathon (goal race)
- Great Limerick Run (Half)
- Athlone Half
- Athlone 3/4
- Dublin Marathon
PB's V. Targets 2013
DCM is the main aim and will be my first Marathon. I hope to run the above races and others that suit along the way. Going to make these targets as tough as possible while still being realistic :rolleyes:
Distance..........PB.........Target
5km................22:31.....19:29
10km..............46:30.....39:59
10 Mile............N/A........1:12:30
Half Marathon..1:49:00..1:29:59
Marathon.........N/A.......3:19:59
As i've already said i have enjoyed reading other training logs and gotten great information from them. Any inputs, observations, comments, advice etc. are most welcome and apreciated. Hopefully this log will motivate me to put in the hard work and i will be able to look back on it fond memories
