Just a quick update... it's official. I'm NOT running a fall marathon (a winter one? Yes). Instead, I have signed up to run a Half Marathon in September. Instead of being all angsty about not running a marathon... I'm actually quite excited about it... for multiple reasons:
1. I get an extra week of bullshitting around before I have to officially start training.
2. I think half training will be a good base for diving into Marathon training.
3. I feel like Half Marathons are my perfect racing distance.
4. And... the biggest reason I'm excited, is because it means that I don't have to run as much in this goddamn heat. YAY!
So, yeah... I'm pumped. BQ Training posts will resume in October. For now... it's all about the half.
run, rest, eat, bitch, buy things, cross-train, blog, repeat.

I think half training in general (and particularly in the summer) is roughly one million times more enjoyable!
Soooo when are you going to do a New Englad Half so you can stay with me?
Agree x 2000, training for a half is so much more low key. I say this as I enter my first week of training for a full in November!
Love the cat picture. The dog one you posted last week had me lmao!
Carina- Yeah. ALTHOUGH training for a marathon during the summer heat and then racing in the fall/winter can produce magical results.
LAPT- Well... Boston Marathon 2015! But, yeah... hopefully I'll be up there sooner than that.
Wesa: I'm glad I'm not the only one who enjoys the animal gifs. Although, even if I was, I probably woudn't stop posting them. Good luck with training!
