Where this thing going? Oh that way!!!

I know I haven't been on here much and that's partly because I haven't decided which direction I want to take with this blog. I started it to document Kelly and my first Marathon training plan. As we all know (or you can go back and read about it) we completed our first Marathon last November in OBX.

We are now training up for other events but this time separately. Kelly has transitioned to Triathlons this year and I am going to try my hand in the Ultra world. Kelly is currently training for the Beach to Battleship Half Ironman in October and I am training for the Old Glory Trail Trot 50K in November.

So as we move forward (can't go back at this point) I hope that I can continue to share my experiences and lessons learned either so you can get a good chuckle at some of my training mishaps or that it will help you in your training and reaching your goals. If there is something that you'd like to see or read about here feel free to shoot me a message. But for now I'm going to waddle around on some sore legs from yesterdays 14 mile run.

It's been awhile.. time to get back to training!!!

Some of  you might have wondered what happened to this blog and with my training... well don't worry so have I. But it's time to get back to training and this time I am going to train for a 50K. I realized that I had an empty spot on the back window of my truck that another sticker would fill.

I wanted to make sure that I had plenty of time to train up for the event. My running has really been hit or miss since healing up from my hernia surgery. The doctor has cleared me and I'm ready to go. The 50K I found was the Old Glory Trail Trot on November 15th, 2014. This is a local race here in NC that benefits the Old Glory Legacy Foundation. Here is their mission direct from their page at http://www.oglfoundation.org/

THE OLD GLORY LEGACY FOUNDATION BRINGS SOLDIERS AND THEIR FAMILIES TOGETHER TO BUILD STRONG FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS AND LASTING MEMORIES THROUGH OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES.

Now I haven't finalized my training plan but I know that's something I need to get cracking on. Of course now I have too because of this blog (its on the internet so I has to be true). Over the next week I'll be making up a training plan (or more accurately... modifying someone else's plan). So for now I'll pass the link so any of you that are in the area can sign up also and train with me. http://www.oldglorytrailtrot.com/
