Long-Term Running Goals:

I want to accomplish my short term goals first... Once I do that, I will have an idea of what to expect long term... 44 yrs old now and since I've been injured free for 1 month I am jumping back on marathon training. Any recommendations for a good marathon in December 2021? What is your recommendation?

Personal:

Don't knock it until you try it.

Sorry about the truck issue, nice folks out in this world, huh?

Your training is going very well, keep it up...you are going to go great at the half marathon this month based on your recent runs.
