The run we are doing is actually at Disney World again (my friend and I just ran a 5K at Epcot during the Disney Princess half marathon), and this one will be a "Villain Run" that will be at Hollywood Studios.
Here's my plan:
April & May: Get comfortable running 5 1/2 miles. I'll plan to run 3 days a week- Saturday, Sunday and Wednesday (just because that works best with my schedule). The other 2 days of working out, I will focus on doing some light weight training and not so intense 30 minutes of cardio.
June & July: 6.5 miles will be my goal. I think I will be impressed with myself if I can run even that!
July & August: 8.5 miles
September: 10 miles. I want to make sure I can run a full 10 miles at least 2 times before the race.
In the meantime I will be working on eating lower fat meals and whole grain sources of carbs, along with a moderate portion of protein- especially the day before a run.
Does anyone have any tips on training for a big run like this? If so let me know. I'm excited for this challenge!
