1/2 Marathon Training - Week 13 & 14

Well my training took a slight hit with sickness, back to school craziness & vacation.  I did what I could & I'm proud of that.  And I did walk at least a marathon in the Disney parks, all while pushing, pulling and/or carrying at least one child.  Have about 6 weeks left so I need to hit it hard now!

 

I also started a new challenge the "Plank a Day" challenge on Facebook.  You do planks everyday, once a day for as long as you can.  Three different positions, prone, left & right.  I started in FL & missed 2 days with the travel, but am doing it twice/day today & tomorrow to make up for that.  I can already hold myself :10 seconds longer, I'm up to :40 seconds in each position.  Goal is 1 minute in each by the end of the month.  Join the challenge if you're on Facebook!!
