Staying fit and focused for my family involves creating the frameworks they'll use to maintain their lifelong fitness strategy.  One technique that's worked well for me is a running calendar.  Easy to follow and always there as motivation, the family running calendar is s reliable tool for creating those lifelong fitness habits.

Earlier this week I mentioned Racewire’s note about the South Shore Half Marathon.  With that date confirmed, it’s time to establish a training regimen.

My training will revolve around the 13.1 mile distance, but regardless of distance the approach is the same: establish a routine and cement good habits to maintain your fitness strategy. 

So if you're trying to get back into a fitness routine, or striving to be fit and focused for family, check out the free running calendar.  This particular version has been designed to support training for a 5K – a terrific target distance for early stages of develooping a lifelong fitness strategy. 

As always, share your feedback!

P.S.  If you are interested in the South Shore Half and looking for a training partner or group, shoot me an email and let’s see what we can do!
