One last suggestion for today...workout journal.
I keep track of all of my workouts in a calendar. It's not fancy, it doesn't glitter, it's not electronic, but it is a place I write them all down. I only write down the workouts I did on a particular day, I don't go into great detail, I don't write down my pace, the specific route I took etc., but I find it easier to stay disciplined if I have my little green calendar to report back to. It is also immensley satisfying to look back at my calendar as the weeks progress and see all of the workouts I have done, see the distances increasing and to know I have done it all myself. So that is my suggestion, treat yourself, go find a pretty/fun/exciting journal or calendar or spreadsheet to write your workouts down in. Make sure it is something you will use, not something too complicated or time consuming...maybe we will have a monthly perfect attendance club for everyone who doesn't skip any workouts each month :D

It is in no way associated with the Nike Women's Marathon, Nike or Blogspot. There are no sponsors for this blog. Additionally, anyone who is going to train for a half marathon or marathon should understand that running and walking is good exercise, but good exercise means stress on your body, especially if you are not an athletic person. Therefore, anyone considering participating in this event should see a doctor before they begin training to ensure good health and successful training leading up to and following the event. Lastly, I do not claim any responsibility for injuries which happen as a result of training for this event.

I use a calendar to plan my runs but a simple, the only kind I know how to do, to keep track of total distance. The distance keeps me interested when it would be easier to skip a day.
OOOPS I use a spreadsheet to keep track of total miles.
I make a weekly Excel spreadsheet and write down my workouts as well. It is the only way to keep me disciplined when I'm not working out with a partner. It's not fancy either, very basic, but it works. : )
