I am ramping up for the Hartford Half in October. My plan is to do some long runs (8, 10, 12) once on the weekends and then get in three or four runs during the week at 4 to 5 miles each. If I can do that between now and race day I should be able to complete the race without serious injury.
The next hope from there is to keep up with the training and do another half marathon in November, along with Manchester on Thanksgiving. After that, it gets mighty cold around here, and I may not hit the road again until Spring. Unless, of course, I find myself back in Holyoke.
