My Exercise Plan for ‘08

I have 3 marathons planned in ‘08.  One is in 2 weeks.  The one after that is the end of April in Austria.  Then, I would like to run the Marine Corp Marathon at the end of October.   There are chances that I might add one in there, so that I can run one approximately every 3 or 4 months, but I haven’t looked at that as of late.  So, I have decided that there needs to be a general weekly workout goal. 

Additionally, I am taking a bike tour of Austria and Hungary at the end of April and beginning of May.  So, after this marathon,  I need to incorporate cycling into my week.  Somedays I may need to do strength and a cardio workout.    

So, My weeks will have to include:

4 days of running, sometimes with 5 days.

2 days of longer cycling;  I don’t want to count my rides to and from work in this, these need to be longer than 6 miles each.

3 days of strength training, which can also be done on the same days as a run or cycle.

1 day of complete rest per week.

I also want to swim.  I will map out a schedule, I guess I need to buy an ‘08 calander, huh!?!

THIS YEAR WILL BE FOCUSING ON ME….

                                      SCHOOL AND WORKING OUT….

                                                                  HEALTHY IN MIND AND SPIRIT!
