My boss, LOVE HER, lobbied for me to assist with an event in Vancouver Canada in early June. After a quick chat with Liz, the lovely British lady in the office (I ALWAYS want to imitate her accent it is too cool) I had the travel dates and returned to check my calendar. Although I have started the 16 week Marathon training plan, I am registered for the Rock and Roll 1/2 Marathon on June 27th. I will decide in a few weeks which distance I will tackle ( I found out it is just $20 to upgrade), my decision is dependent upon my knee and how I hold up during the training.
So I wrote the dates on my daily planner, then took a quick look at my training plan (see below). So the day that I am slated to arrive in Vancouver to work the event the plan is to run 20 MILES. WHAT?!?! I freaked out and IM'd Shelby (I love interoffice IM saves me life). I told her of my dilemma, and always the partner, she had a QUICK solution. Apparently she knows Vancouver a little and offered Stanley park for my LONG run. I could arrive early, run the 20 in Stanley park, have a quick rest, and show up refreshed to unpack the shipment. It could work? Right? Or maybe I will just do the half and run 12 miles that day? Decisions...Decisions...
The Sea Path looks very pretty!!
My "Rookie" plan. What do you think??
