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.

Had stomach problems must have been something I ate or drank. I'll probably run my long run tommorrow.

Still having some stomach problems. Don't know what's the problem, but I keep on getting a side stitch through out the whole run, sometimes it goes away and at others it comes back painfully.  Quad strain is gone,  but now I'm hit with a low abdominal pain. Aghh I gotta sort things out with a Dr., hopefully it ain't a hernia.
