So the time has come to train for my marathon...
The one thing that has been on my mind for months...
AND I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO FREAKIN' PLAN!
I've been so busy with things that I cannot get something worked out. I grade papers until midnight and I'm exhausted by the time I get done. I don't know what to do? Get those long runs in and "hope" that I've had a decent base all these months.
:? :| :? :| :? :| :? :|
:(
This sucks. Dammit!

when is the marathon?
why not do a half instead. you know, i'm not even leaving the house everyday and i know i'd never find time to train for a full marathon. too many people would be hanging off my limbs as i ran, asking for things. :| maybe i'm the one that needs a time management course, but for now noley, i'd take the pressure off myself and maybe aim for that R&R half again.
don't hate me.

Grade while your on the treadmill.
Just grab a schedule and go with it. Don't fret over it, lean on it all the way. You'll do fine.
Here's a straight forward schedule. With your job/home demands, perhaps this is the best. Log the miles and get yourself to the start.

What is your base like and how long is your current long run?

As any good teacher knows, "If you fail to plan, you plan to fail." :P Relax - your base is good, so you have some leeway.
