TM run. I was planning on running 8 miles but the treadmill stopped at 1:05:00. I didnt feel like starting it up again for less than a half mile. I started at a 6.5 mph and increased the speed 0.1 mph every half hour.

Ran the last half of the STG Marathon Course. Felt great! Ran a minute a mile faster than I wanted. I hope I dont regret that later. ave 7:50 (8:30, 8:14, 7:54, 7:48, 7:49, 7:48, 7:50, 7:52, 7:27, 7:35, 7:22, 7:44, 7:45, 7:50) That is the most consistent I have ever run.

First month of marathon training is a success. Next week is recovery and hopefully I can build up more endurance by the end of next month.
