running in february

October 13, 2006 at 11:23 am · Filed under Experiences

This morning I received my 東京マラソン当選通知メール. That is my Tokyo Marathon election notice email…roughly…I think. No, I am not running a marathon, just a 10k race but I am still scared as all hell about it. The spooky thing is that I received the email on Friday the 13th and my registration number was 1313…a little freaky ain’t it?

But I paid and I can’t back out now (unless I want to waste 60$). I was apprehensive because this morning’s jog was a little sluggish. Then I was on the bus on the way to work and I saw a number of runners. They were the insanely fit old men-type who wear those wee bum cheek revealing shorts and angular-shaped sunglasses so part of me thought “oh god I will be left choking on their dust!” That’s me sans-confidence thinking and will I ever get into a pair of sweet hot pants thinking like that? No. So, I need to do the race. Even if it means finishing last.

If anyone has tips - please let me know. I kinda wish I had a coach…maybe (s)he would tell me that I shouldn’t have tried those pigs intestines last night which is another story that I will get into if time allows today.

I’ve been using this:

You’re probably past the beginning stage but maybe you could count backwards from the race day the number of weeks and start from there. It’s actually pretty good. Sometimes it’s hard to stop running and walk for a bit when you’re feeling good about your run, but I think if you follow the program, it’ll work out better in the end!

10k should take you less than 1.5 hours, but you should mostly train 30 minutes. Warm up 5-10 and then alternate 1 minute of running with 2 of walking/slow jogging all the way till the end of the 30 mins. You should train the 10k at least once to get a feeling for the distance, but doing the 30 mins consistently is better. Good luck Meg! :)

That’s so cool! In fact that’s similar to how I got started. Wondering if I could ever finish the Sun-Run I trained for 30 min 3X times a week for about two months. To my surprise I finished it in 846 place out of 50,000 (43min). Now I am addicted to running, I hope that after training you will become addicted too, it is so much fun.

My advice, pick a pace you think you can hold and try to run 30min non-stop. If you stop reduce the pace and start over. Forget about work and other stuff, focus especifically on your running, your posture, breathing, etc. Don’t use the elevator, instead try climbing as much stairs as you can. Good luck!
