My legs felt better compared to Saturday.  I ran 4 easy miles at lunch on the treadmill.  Avg pace was 9:16 (1.5 incline).  I'm looking forward to ramping up mileage again but I will still take it easy for the next few weeks.

6 miles outside this morning along the banks.  Avg pace was 8:58.

I officially signed up for the Philadelphia Marathon in November on Thursday.  Looking back at my training for the Pocono Marathon, I ramped up mileage too quick, got injured and had to scale back my mileage for the rest of my training.  My overall average miles per week was probably around 35 miles per week.  I would like my base to be around 50-55 mpw this time around.  Hopefully the additional mileage will bring my times down again.
