I have officially become insane, nuts with my running. I will be participating in the Dopey 2020 Challenge!
The challenge consists of a 5k + 10k + half marathon + full marathon = 48.6 miles in 4 days (and six medals!)
I chose this challenge for various reasons.
I want to do something really hard.
I am ready for a bigger challenge.
I will be kicking of the year 2020 with a big accomplishment.
Bragging rights
Many friends from the running community has completed the challenge and I always admired their hard work.
I love Disney races.
And finally, I’m not fast …. I struggle with faster running …. I have asthma and exercise induced asthma and I receive 4 shots a month for allergies ……so my focus is developing more aerobic endurance . Dopey is an endurance challenge.
I am starting week 8 of training. I am following the Galloway training program. His programs have worked very well for me in past races.

The last two pictures are at Tanglewood … home of the Boston Symphony. Sunday my relaxation day .
