The Boot

I have goals.  Should I post them?  Sure, why not?

1.  sub 2 half (again--ran a 1:57 in 2006?)
2.  25 min 5K
3.  4:30 marathon

To do that will take a load of work.  But I am getting ready for that.  I am working through some plantar fasciitis issues that I have dealt with for over a year.  Finally went to the dr and they put me in a boot at night and gave me month of Mobic.  2 days and I already feel some relief.  We shall see after tomorrow's long run.  I still am going to orthopedic massage/stretching.
A few other factors that I think will get me to my goals:
*lose weight (20 lbs is goal)
*hill repeats/track work
*mid-week longer run

I am running fairly consistently but its the same run every day.  Need to mix it up a bit.  I have been strength training and I can tell that helps by my times on the last two half marathons I have done.

Ready to start Chicago training in June...hopefully managing my PF.

Woot!!!
