16 week plan

Thursday night when I thought up this hair brained idea I researched plans to help me train. I found some 12 week plans and a few 16 week plans. Together Frankie and I decided that the 16 week plan was best for us. I need all the help I can get to be prepared both physically and emotionally for this journey! Frankie does too since he hasn't ran in years and not at all in an organized event since before his accident. This is the plan that we decided on:

I got this plan here.
We are having to tweak it to fit our needs a bit and since week one is only 3 days long for us because it started on Friday I didn't use it as an off day. I am hoping that this will be a plan that works for us and gets us ready for race day! What do y'all think of the plan?

Proverbs 16:3 NLT
   Commit your actions to the Lord, and your plans will succeed.
