18 weeks until race

I ran 2.02 miles this morning around 10 a.m. with the sad time of 24:24 with a pace of 12:02 min/mi.
It was hot & I was wishing I had brought my water bottle with me.  I was able to run straight through the 1st mile & ran the 2nd with walking in between.  Next week I will start the official training for the race.
Here is the schedule I will be following:
WEEK 1
Monday } 25 min. cross-training
Tuesday } 2 miles easy (run non-stop or 3 min. run/ 1 min. walk)
Wednesday } 25 min. cross-training
Thursday } 2 miles easy ((run non-stop or 3 min. run/ 1 min. walk)
Friday } REST
Saturday } 3 miles easy (run nonstop or 3 min. run/1 min. walk)
Sunday } REST
Total Milage for the week } 7 miles
(Cross-Training is cardio-based exercise other than walking or running)
