I have a new friend, named Hal Higdon. I'm not really sure how much I like him yet....I think he's trying to kill me. lol :) I started out using his Intermediate Half Marathon Training program a few weeks ago. It's been going well so far. I feel like I might be doing a little too much too fast. But it's not supposed to be easy either. So I think as long as I don't have any real, serious pain....I'll just keep going. I extended it a little so that I could ease into it.
Here's what I've been doing:

Wednesday: 5x400 @ 5k pace (2.35mi/9:34)

Sunday: rest
Week 2
