So I've decided to run the HDSA's Presidio 10K Trail Run (28 Aug. 2005). I'm also thinking about the Silicon Valley Marathons and having done some research for training guides, most started at an 18 weeks training time. Yikes the SV Marathons is 12 weeks away. There is a 12 weeks program I found but it assumed that I'm able to currently run 13 miles at a comfortable pace. With this program the weeks that I maxed my running, the total mileage is 46 miles. That's like running from Sunnyvale to San Francisco. That's a lot of running.

12 weeks though is the ideal time frame to train for a half marathon. Hmmm that half marathon is looking good right now. But I'm sure my decision will be better once I actually read these guides and plan it out.

Looks like you're running under 10 minute miles...of course, that's at the gym. What have been your times at the other races you've participated? The 10K Run will be good, but you should try to find a longer run at the end of September as a final tune-up.
