3:25, 3:15, sub 3:00 marathon? The sky's the limit! I want to see how fast I can get! :)

Personal:

I started running in 2009, and am still learning a lot about running. Right now I have it made, I am living in Cambridge, MA temporarily doing a Post-Doc at MIT and taking advantage of improving my running by learning from all the speedy Boston runners and hitting the hills. I travel to FL to visit my family and get some "heat" training in. Then travel back to Chicago frequently to see my husband and show off my new running legs in all the flat, fast races.

12 miles with 6 miles easy, 6 miles @MP

MP @ 7:56 min/mi miles 5-11. 12 mi total in 1:43:39

Chicago lakefront. 60F at start, 68F at finish. Legs felt dead on warmup, but was running out against a headwind and wearing 21 oz of fuel. MP miles felt good at first, but then hammies started bothering me especially the right one. Hammies were hurting really bad after slowing up for the cd. Took an icebath after.
