Just trying to dial in on a comfortable pace ... Maybe a little ambitious today. Unfortunately, I think regardless of what pace I run the first 16, the last 10 are going to be brutal. Anyway, felt good about this run .... At least I will be comfortable running the first half! Lol

7:58, 7:50, 7:39, 7:29, 7:26, 7:28, 7:19, 7:34, 7:29, 7:21, 7:08, 7:04, 7:16, 40 seconds last 0.1

You're really looking good for the little training you have been able to do. I wish I were half as gifted with the natural ability to run!

Nice run! I think you'll have a nice Boston race, especially if it isn't 85 degrees.

Does the JG taper method give you the next 10 days off?

Thx IJR, but I hardly classify myself as gifted!

Joe, based on 275 miles over the last 9 weeks, I think I am still in base building mode for another seven days ... then I will taper for 3!
