Spring is coming!!! What races are you planning to do?

So far, I I am planning on doing:

Marcie Mazzola 5K
Alec's Run

I was going to do the Jigsaw Race (for Autism) but have an all-day training that day

Re: Spring is coming!!! What races are you planning to do?

I had an awful marathon training cycle and have just decided not to run my race on 3/21. Extremely bummed about it, but I don't think it's worth it to my body to run a marathon when I'm not fully trained. I have two more planned this year (Oct and Nov), so I'm trying to embrace it as a good decision.


so instead, I think I will do the town of Huntington St Pats race.

on the back burner is the LI half and the NYS Summer series.

I did my 9+1 for NYC last year...I'm enjoying not doing so many races.

I'm doing the 5k on Sat in smithtown, the same race your doing in April, then the Half in May. Oh and just signed up for one in Brightwaters in June. Also debating on doing one in Seldon March 28 but not sure yet. If your interested in any of these just let me know and I can get the names of the races for ya.

do you mean full week of training or specific types of workouts (speed, interval, tempo)?

can you tell us how experienced you are in running?

Re: Spring is coming!!! What races are you planning to do?

i am pretty experienced just haven't run a half yet.

I was looking for a program like you mention on the treadmill week by week.

and some ideas for running outside.

I do spin classes once a week so I want to incorporate that into it as well
