I had a bad headache last night so opted out of intervals with the Track Club, and instead did solo speedwork today. I forgot how much harder it is to do it on your own. It turned out to be a good workout though.

2 miles easy, 800 on/800 off for 4 miles, 1 mile easy

800 "on" splits: 2:57, 2:55, 2:51, 2:43   

I really want to start getting more miles in, but I am being patient and following the "10% rule."

That marathon was a little tough for me...the rain, the humidity and the long boring stretches. I did great the first 20 miles then I guess I just lost it! Oh well. I'm trying to get into a 20k trail run in MS for March (registration is closed, we will see) and I am thinking I may do the Nashville Marathon. It takes so much time training with the long runs....right now I'm kind of liking the 13 milers!

Patience is good, really! Great job on the run, your times always amaze me!!!
