Marathon Training

Okay, July 4th has come and gone.

For those of you who are training for either your first Walt Disney World full or half-marathon”¦how are you doing? You should be in full swing training by now.

Hopefully by now you are somewhere in the 3-5 mile range and are at a comfortable pace. Remember, as your conditioning improves your pace may improve as well. Don’t push yourself too much”¦just “nudge” yourself a little more each time out.

By “nudge” I mean add a minute or two to your workout each day. You want to gradually build your stamina and ease your body into a longer workout rather than rush it.

If you’ve never participated in a race before now is the time to think about trying out a local short 5K race. It will be good experience for you to get a few races under your belt before the big one.

Good luck.
