WORKOUT
--------------------

A very productive session with the trainer today. We discussed my plans for the half-marathon, and how I needed to tweak my weights program. My revised weekly program looks like this:

MON - weights - core and light lower body
TUE - run
WED - weights - core and upper body
THU - run
FRI - rest
SAT - long run
SUN - rest

I'm cutting out a lower body/back weights session and all interval sessions, since the running will take care of leg conditioning and my overall goal is now distance, not speed, Reps will increase to 12, and weights will decrease to a maintenance level. In late October I move up to 4 runs a week (eek!) which will reduce my weights workout to one weekly core and upper body session.
