I'm feeling pretty inspired right now. After two weeks of throbbing head pain, I feel a thousand times better and am ready to start kicking some a$$! The half marathon is in 11 days. After that it's time for me to get back on the bike for some targeting training, because I have committed to the Whistlestop Duathlon on April 9. After the half marathon, I will meet with the wonderful coach of the couch to 10K program for some direction on speedwork. The splits in the duathlon are 2.8 miles each, so it's time to get tuned for some short distance sprinting.

A break this winter has restored my motivation. However, I am concerned that I may experience some burnout this summer if I keep up a hard training pace. I need to map out a schedule for some break time.
