I hate race pics. Very rarely do they turn out decent for me. Usually, I look like I'm half dead, constipated, or I have, as a friend called, it "Einstein hair"....
All in good fun, I suppose. My Gasparilla finish pic was the best out of this bunch.

I never buy race pics, but they are fun to look at. I would have bought the ones from a half last year, but they all looked terrible. Hopefully my marathon finish photo turns out good.... but after 26.2 miles, I can't hope for much.
I didn't get to jog last night. There were several issues at work I was dealing with and I had to catch up on some assignments for school as well. It was also my late night at work, so I was exhausted when I got home. To make up for it, I will do my CXWorks tonight at the gym (core training) and then run 3 miles after that. I'm normally pretty pumped after CX, so I should have a boost of energy.
My training plan is for the next 3 months to build up my running base again to where I was last year- distance wise. If I'm not quite as fast, that's ok. The longest distance I had ever run was 16 miles. I felt like felt like dying, but I did it. :-) Then for the next 5+ months, I will be working on getting up to the marathon distances. I haven't really laid out that plan yet... whether I will try to run 26 miles at least once, or only 20-22 miles as some plans say to do.
Here is what I do have planned for my weekly training:
Today: CXWorks, 3 mi run
Wed: 3-4 mi run
Thurs: Spinning, CXWorks
Friday: Rest
Saturday: CXWorks
Sunday: 6 miles
All of this I will be working around my school schedule. I have an exam, a quiz, and a paper due.
