It was quite nice on the bike path today despite the weather. Hardly any people. I didn't drag my camera along, but always have my cell phone, so these shots were taken with it.
So, weeks of not running, eating camp food, and some tasty beer (the Saranac Summer ales are out!) have set me back a bit. As I was walking (yes, I walked) I was mulling over my training and preparations for the coming weeks. So far I have come up with the following:- eat better and more regularly
- drink more water (I rarely have any)
- run more often and increase distance
- do not focus on time
- cross-train with bicycle and weights
- do a 5k race or two before the road race
All of these seem doable. I am hoping for some sunny warm or hot weather to train in as well, in case the weather turns brutally hot for race day in August.
Getting the focus back on me, myself and I....

Me, Myself and I???
Who are those people??
Sounds like a do-able plan to me.
I think you have a great approach outlined. Stick with it and not only will you be well prepared for Falmouth, but you'll also be able to enjoy plenty of tasty beers between now and then. Cheers!
FB- the voices in my head... ;)
elvoy! Glad to hear from you! Thanks for the words.
Sounds ambitious. Be careful what you wish for in the heat dept. We are strangling here. 107 the highest so far.
Patti-
UGH! We rarely see triple digits here. I can't imagine it on a frequent basis.
