Dusting off the training blog…

When I started this little training blog last Spring as a companion to my primary blog Musings From The Fishbowl, I was hoping that it would help me feel a bit more connected to other athletes via my training and also to connect with other Sporty Vegans. After a bit of a hiatus (not from training, but from sport blogging), I’m back with big plans and loads of ambition. I’m all about the Paris Marathon in April 2009!

I’ve been wanting to run a marathon since I began running in September of 2005, but was first held up by an over-training injury (due to my zeal, like so many new runners), and then life just getting in the way, being concerned about not having enough time to properly train, feeling “safer” with the smaller distances of the half-mary, etc. I have decided that enough is enough and I am going for it, and am hoping to use this training blog to help me organize my thoughts and training better.

I have a regular training log at Running Ahead, but cannot figure out how to make it public or to link it to this blog – if anyone has any suggestions on that I would be most thankful!

I’d also like to send out a big merci! to Jen, my favourite tri-athlete and yogini for sharing her groovy icons with me!
