Marathon Training Plan Complete and Launched

This week I started my marathon training. I had some help pulling my 20 week training plan together from a guy at work, John Stille, who knows a lot more about running than I do, he has completed several marathons, many of which were under 3 hours. Anyhow, I posted it below just in case anybody was half interested, it has my goal time, my general run schedule with distances and speeds together with my weekly total mileage (if you wish to see it larger, click on it).

Of course all of this is still a plan, we’ll see how well I stick with this, although I have already almost completed the first week. I’ll keep you updated.

Shown below is a picture of me as I near the end of the recent Indianapolis half marathon, can you tell?  Below that is a picture of me hanging around with Steve and Brad who will each run the Chicago marathon with me.
