Now that we know your "secret training" plan we will be able to ride you if you start to slack. Keep up the good work.

How fast do you do 100m repeats? I notice they were in the marathon training I did last year and I was never sure if I was suppose to be going all out or not.

Rhett, Just that you are there with a big stick will keep me from slacking:)

Kathie, This is what the plan says: "Over 100 meters, gradually accelerate to 90% of all-out, hold it for 5 seconds, then decelerate. Walk to full recovery after each." I'm not sure I do them just as stated. What I shoot for is, over about 100m build up to a very strong effort, hold it, then slow back to an easy pace. I haven't been walking afterwards.

You're following the training plan to the T. We are gonna follow (er, watch) your training very closely. Better not disappoint us. No pressure.
