Subject: Am I moving too fast?? I need the opinon of some people on my plans here. I have only ran 2 5K's so far, with a few more already scheduled. I also am signed up for a sprint TRI in mid July, and am already looking at another Sprint in October and 5K following (saturday(tri)-sunday(5k). I am still in a training plan for 5K's which is finishing up nicely, and my Sprint TRI training plan will finish in August. Now I am thinking if I survive my double race weekend in October, then maybe change my plans for Gasparilla. I orginally wanted to just run a 5K to compare to my first race. Now I want to build more base mile in my training this year to be able to run a 5K on saturday and try to finish a 1/2 marathon on Sunday. Now I just started racing this year and am still around 220lbs and dropping slowly. Does anyone think I'm trying to do to much too soon? Should I try what I'm planning and just listen to my body? I am trying to stick with the 10%-20% increase with the proper taper weeks lined up. I just thought to check the training plans for 1/2 mary's. Oh well I will do that soon. Still looking for your input. Thanks, Adam Edited by ROBIT79 2006-04-02 5:46 PM
