My goal is to continue training for the Las Vegas Half Marathon on December 5, and not miss any of my scheduled runs. I run/walk three times a week, using a 30:60 second run/walk ratio. I do two maintenance runs of two miles each, and one longer run. The long runs alternate between mileage-increasing runs and shorter recovery runs. For October, my long runs will be 9.5, 4, 11, and 4 miles. (The last week in October, I'll be out of town, and have scheduled the time off into my training.)
Runs are followed by 4x15 crunches (two sets of regular and two sets of oblique crunches), 2x15 pushups (currently on the counter, but I may try to move to the floor in a week or so and/or increase the number of sets), and 10 minutes of yoga-type stretches.
I've been training for 8 weeks already and haven't missed a run/walk yet, so I'm hoping to keep it up all the way to Las Vegas!
