Baltimore 10 Miler Plan

I have registered for the Baltimore 10 Miler and I am SO pumped.  I haven’t found the time motivation to race since I ran last year’s Blue Jay 5k at Hopkins and I think this is the perfect challenge to get me back in the game.

(Ugh, I just went back and read that post – note to self – eat a box of Claritin before running.  Also, we didn’t run that 6k I mentioned – though I can’t recall why – it was probably because those allergies knocked me out of training for a week and I bailed out of self pity.)

Over time I have run – eh – maybe fifty 5k’s, give or take a couple.  I have never raced a longer distance, and I’m a little antsy about that, so I am tackling this with my usual stifling-organizational-Excel-fueled-prowess.

SO.  Here it is – my training plan for the Baltimore 10 Miler!

  2. Good for you! I have run the 10 miler twice and should mentioned three things. Train when it is hot and do a run in the rain. It is always super humid race morning and one year it rained cats and dogs the entire course.

    You MUST practice on hills. It's a hilly course!
