The One Where I've Made Some Changes...

As you probably noticed, I changed the name of my blog and a bit of the layout.  I hope to make a new one soon, but for now, this will do.  I'm going to start documenting more of my runs to keep myself accountable.  I mean, I can't look like a slacker to all of you and John too :-)  And Lou Lou comes from John...Lou is my middle name that I hated as a child but have embraced since it's been passed down for generations.  The End.

June 4th, is the technical start to MarathonFest here in Orlando with a local running club called Track Shack.  They do an awesome job, especially for the community.  I was an active participant in MarathonFest my last marathon, but driving 30 minutes one way in the morning to run, made me a mean person after a while because my sleep was stolen, so I'll train in spirit during the week this go-around.  I'm going to follow some of their training program, some of another one I found through Runner's World, and, I got the book Run Less, Run Faster, so hopefully between those 3 things, I'll find a good groove that'll help me kick Savannah's trash!

Hopefully you are all having a Happy Monday!  I'll update your on our weekend hopefully tomorrow if I can grab some pictures off the camera to share with you!

I like the changes!

I am doing the same thing as you as far as training with Track Shack. I'm going to do the long runs with the group on Sundays and then do the Tues/Thurs training near my house. I just cannot wake up at 4am to go run!

I can't wait to start!!
