Stonehenge with four circuits done for 5 miles at 9:38 pace per mile in 48:07 and done at 144 bpm avg HR with this being 83% MAX HR.

In the past I considered this Marathon Pace miles.  But today I cannot justify this because I did not run hard - more a relaxed pace.  And I did not run Long.  I had to do another two roofs today and so I cut the run short.  (Not the only reason though...not really that much into running today.).  But I was prepared to run long...I had two Power Gels and a Camel Bak with 40 oz. Gatorade.  Last week I did not have this and I left unprepared.  I have to remember that the purpose of Longs is to prepare for the Marathon...so run it as you would the Marathon - with proper liquid and fuel.

So I complete Week Six of Eighteen in the training program.

Only 23.78 miles this week.

Clearly I am not running the correct mileage. 

But have faith folks.  I will get there.  Really the weather has been bad.  But I am making adjustments.  The RHTM is very helpful.  I am not big into TMs.  But in weather like this - well it does come in handy.

My last entry was 1/22/11.  So I just today added entries for 1/27, 1/28, 1/30, 2/1, 2/2, 2/3, 2/4, 2/5 and 2/6.  All caught up.  Still alive and well.  Have not been much on the Net lately.
