April 29, 2015-
Today I will be starting my daily blogs here these will also be posted on my Facebook page and twitter and all BUT it will follow my daily training regiment for my upcoming marathon and other races. It will also follow any and all health related stuff I am getting into. I will be talking about my Vegan lifestyle and how my dogs are included safely in on this lifestyle, I will include research on the topic (cold hard facts). And I will include as many photos and videos as possible so that you can see not just read everything I have to offer. I will be talking about my fundraiser and my book (which is also part of the fundraiser- see below for that info....)
Anyhow, most recently I have been concentrating on training for a marathon with Scout. We are in our 13 week of training, the marathon will take place on May 24th. The route will go from Smithtown to Calverton here on Long Island. Basically, we will be running along Smithtown By Pass to Middle Country Rd turning onto two other roads to get to Kent Animal Shelter where we will finish......We hope to start running early on Sunday morning so as to avoid as much traffic as possible. Today we have a short 8 mile training run where we will be running the first mile of the course BUT going off towards St James and back......
As of now we only have a grand total of 6 "long" runs, I am considering anything 10 miles or over to be a "long" run. the rest of the week looks like this......
Today- 8miles
Thursday- 5 miles
Friday- 5 miles
Saturday- 22 Miles (yes, this is our peak week before the marathon)
Sunday- REST
Monday- REST
Next week looks like this:
Tuesday- 10 miles
Wednesday- 8 miles
Thursday- 5 miles
Friday- 4 miles
Saturday- 16 miles
Sunday- REST
The following week goes like this:
Monday- 5 miles
Tuesday- 3.25 miles
Wednesday- 7 miles
Thursday- 5 miles
Friday- 4 miles
Saturday- 12 miles
Sunday- REST
and then our final week or MARATHON week looks like this:
Monday- 5 miles
Tuesday- 10 miles
Wednesday- 4 miles
Thursday- 5 miles
Friday- REST
Saturday- 2 miles
Sunday- MARATHON
What then?.....Make sure to tune in everyday to find out more details on our training.....and what comes up next- YES we do have something in store for after the MARATHON!
Don't forget about our fundraiser for the shelter that helped me find my furever home!

And with summer coming, we all want to sit outside and spend time with our dogs. There will also be blogs on doing Doga with your dog, walking with your dog. And the life story of Sandy.
