I just did away with my original marathon training plan and decided I'm going to try something more simple the next 11 weeks in preparation for Utah Valley. I am only going to do one hard workout each week either a 6 mile tempo run around 6:15 pace or 1600 m repeats at 5:45 pace. All the other runs are going to be ran at 7:20 pace. I think I've been running too slow on my easy runs. Also I'm going give myself the option of either runnning on Fridays or not. Saturdays will be a longer run. I'm hoping to have the mileage be between 50 to 60 miles each week, and I'm sure people are wondering yes I'm going to continue to play basketball 3 times a week.
Today I went out and did 6 miles, it was a good run over to the Hurricane ball fields and back
