I aim to be in the best shape of my life, physically and emotionaly.  I want to compete more, 5K, 10K, half and full marathons.

I really want to keep my self in shape and exercised, maintain a good cardio work out.

I just clicked through your last few weeks and if you blogged every run then I'd just suggest getting more consistent. I'll work on a training plan from here to STG marathon. But the first 4 weeks of it will basically just be mileage. Like running 6 days a week at an avg of 6 miles a day working up to around 55-60 miles per week with the long runs and stuff.

Let me know what you think?

Thats good. I have never had anyone to tell me what I need to do. So I am open and willing to do what it takes. 6 miles a day it is.
