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.

I honestly think I ran a bit tired at the Edinburg 10k today's run was effortless and I was well rested. I guess some days you have it and some days you don't ! I hope the marathon doesn't turn out to be like this and I hope I have it!
