updates (been slow to do this again)

I have been training, just not reporting too well!
7/24-Dist: 5mi, incWarm(10:30/mile); 2x1600@6:59w/800 jogs; Cool (10/mile)
I was worried about this workout as it initally seemed intimidating, but really i averaged this on my last 5k, just a little different when you "punch it in"---yes i am running on a treadmill right now
7/26-XT--Lat pull down--5 sets of 5 at 140 (3),150(2) circuit of dumbell step-up, dumbell squat to press, dumbell row..3 set of 8 reps, 35# dumbells 10 minutes on the bike
7/29-missed my long run on sunday, this was a partial make up--.5 miles at 9:13, 5 miles at 8:41
7/30-lat pull down, 4 sets at 140#, dips 2 sets of 6, leg raises 2 sets of 20 bicycle, 9miles on stationary bike, mid range tension setting, hill work-out at 120RPM average

Having and end result has really helped me, i struggle with hitting some of the dates/workouts with my travel schedule by i am making sure i get the mileage in. I need to run more outside and should get a good timer/gps etc watch to help ensure my times are right.

i think i should not worry as much about my final time in this first marathon, but like many i am a bit obsessed with time and wanting to already improve something that i have not even done. I think as i move up in mileage i may not worry as much about my times as much as getting in the distance.

DIET DIET DIET, working on that, still a struggle, weith at of 7/27 was 197, have not weighed this week.
