training plans

Damnit. Just when I'm all excited to start training, apparently race season is over. The only local race I can find is the Resolution Run on New Year's Eve, but I will be working since the race is at supper time. Drat. Instead of quitting before I even start, I have decided to focus for now on fitting exercise into my schedule more regularly, building up a fitness "base", and putting myself on a training program for a different goal (more on that later). I am definitely planning to train for the MS Bike Tour next August (I've wanted to do it for a few years now), and the Bluenose Marathon in May (though I haven't decided between the 1/2 marathon and the 10K...), and I think there's a Joints In Motion 5K at the end of March (the Chilly Chilli Joint Jog). Three events to look forward to...that should keep me motivated!!
