Things have been so crazy here that I’ve barely been keeping up with my minimum training schedule.
And I certainly haven’t been posting about it.
That said, I ran 13 miles yesterday so I’m still in the running.
So to speak.

Mileage for the week: 25 miles

Longest run: 13

Grand total since I started training: 120

High point: The annual Turkey Trot on Thursday. Nearly 12,000 of us kicked off Thanksgiving Day with a festive little jog through Austin.

Fun Fact: 77 Days ’til the marathon

Which sort of seems right around the corner when you take into account the holidays and all.
I am daunted when I think that what I ran yesterday is just half of what I’ll need to run in February.
But then I just put my nose down, lace up my shoes and try not to look too far forward.
Having a long view can be helpful when envisioning a big life, but so much of getting there is simply doing what needs to be done.
Right now.
Today.
