Warm up 2 miles ( 1mile with 4% incline)

MP 6.5 miles (AVP: 7.31) - second marathon pace run; was good; i was a little bit worried as this is new for and also the large downhill part;  the last few times the downhill part affected my knee muscles not so much the quads' felt it deep in there so i am respectful towards the treadmill downhill training; this time i culd go faster on the dwonhill part and went down to 6:20 pace;  i think to run on the fast cadence will help me for any downhill-portion and short or a long race (1.5mils 4% and 5.5 miles  -2%); was rested felt good;  treadmill runs are tough - less distraction than outside; maybe i should do them really early in the morning; so i am half asleep when i am running them in this way the run will go by fast; 

Cool down: 2.3 miles (with 5 min on the bike)

Great training run on the dreadmill! This training is going to pay huge dividends at St. George--I have heard so many horror stories of horrific crashes at this race because of mashed quads that couldn't take it anymore--this will not be your problem! You will be able to take full advantage of that downhill for a PR!

Thanks, interesting i don't feel it so much in my quad more in the muscles that surround my knees; maybe this is because of skiing (grew up in Austria).

I am humble about this and take it training by training.
