I have gotten a little stale in my workout routine. Since I hit my weightloss goal, I feel a little lost. So I decided I need a new goal, only this time not related to my weight.

I am starting this program tomorrow morning: http://www.halhigdon.com/halfmarathon/inter.htm

I am starting it on this on Friday June 24. On the schedule it is a rest day, but I am doing Thursday's exercise and then starting Saturday I will follow the schedule exactly.

So anyone wanna try it with me?

    check out nike plus for the ipod or nike plus gps app for the iphone. I love it! I am doing the Air Force Marathon Sept 17, 2011. So I am in! Good luck with your new goal!

    Hey,

    I am not fit enough to do this but I admire your ambition. I may be ready to train for one next summer. In Any case, all the best to you and I hope you persevere and get it!:happy:

    I have the app on my itouch, but I haven't bought the thing for my shoe yet. And, thank you. This should be fun. :smile:

    Not really interested in the program, but would love to share experiences and t
    support. Was going to do a half in the fall, but looking like it might be getting pushed up to august 21st.

    Just complete my first 10k, have a 10.5 mile end of July, so thinking that may be a nice progression.

    Me too. Have done some marathons and halfs, but would love to follow your journey. It's a great new goal. Congratulations.
