Marathon Training

On October 6, 2013, I will be running in the Portland Marathon. In order to achieve this feat, I have employed my daughter Alyson (Aly's Mobile Fitness) as my trainer. She has quite a task ahead of her. I have not run in a few years. She has set me up with a workout plan that will transform my beer drinking lazy ass into a lean ripped running machine.

Yesterday was my first official training day. My assignment called for cross training. I failed this already. I did do a lot of stretching though. Today calls for a two mile run.

I will attempt to post every day in order to document my progress. Hopefully this blog will accomplish two things. First, it will hold me accountable to reaching my goals and second, fulfill my desire to write.

  1. I'm SO proud of you, Papa Simon! Also, I've decided to run the Portland Marathon, too...so you'd better train hard with Aly! She's a beast when she works out. You'll be fit in no time flat! ~ Brittany A.
