New York City Marathon 2011!
By Kevin | April 19, 2010
Having now been officially notified that I did not win an entry into the 2010 NYC Marathon through their lottery, I can now plan on a guaranteed spot for 2011. Having been denied three years in a row gives me guaranteed entry for the next year. I had thought I was eligible for guaranteed entry this year, but I had only been denied going back two years. But, now I’ve been denied in 2008, 2009, and 2010.
So…how does one train for a race that’s a year-and-a-half away? I guess the first step will be to create my goals, and back-up from there, like I typically do. With all this training time available, I’ll probably want to have a few races on my schedule between now and then.
My goal will be to get back into the groove gradually, and build a solid base again before moving into hill training and speedwork. More to come on the training plan as it gets developed…
