This blog is about my running experience. I am not a physician, nutritionist or personal trainer. I am a runner. I do not know it all. I am only writing from my own experiences. I finished my first marathon on June 3, 2012. Who knows where my feet will take me next!

August 5th ~ Logo and M2T W3
The Hammer Nutrition logo. We have a cupboard full of Hammer Gel, Perpetuem, Heed, Recoverite and more. We are VIPs, because we are on the auto ship program. I got this jersey FREE after one of our orders. I love wearing cycling jerseys when I go on long runs because of the pockets in the back. iPod in one, sunglasses in another, and water bottle in the third!
This is week three of training. After this week, race day will be 13 weeks away. You'll maintain the same routine as last week, with three easy runs, one day on hills, and two days of rest. This week's long run is 14 miles.
It's a big milestone, and it may be the first time you really feel as if marathon training is officially under way. Make sure you set aside enough time in your schedule so you don't feel rushed to finish the run and you have time to eat and rest afterward. Also, get your fueling strategy set ahead of time. On any run longer than 75 minutes, energy gels or sports drinks will help you maintain a steady level of energy.
