| I took Saturday and Sunday off...Not for any specific reason, I just thought I needed a rest. Today was a gym day so I went 8 miles easy with 2 miles at marathon pace. tomorrow I'm planning a 22 miler (the longest run in this cycle). One more 20 miler next week and I think I'm done with long runs before Boston.

| WoooHooo....BOSTON...!!!
This was by far my very best 20+ run ever....! I planned my usual 20 mile run targeting it in four sections (5 @ 8:00 pace - HR @ 145, 5 @ 7:45 pace - HR @ 150, 5 @ 7:30 pace - HR @ 155, 5 @ 7:15 pace - HR @ 160, then a final push for 2 miles at what ever the pace and HR would allow). Wow was I supprised. I had to keep speeding up to keep the HR up to were I had planned, the paces felt good even when I was running my 15-20 mile section. I did feel a little stressed on mile 21-22 but my legs still had some spring and weren't feeling heavy. My cardio is what was hurting in on mile 21-22.
This run improved my 20+ fastest by 13 seconds per mile with an equilivant HR.
I know this is probably more information than any of you want to see but I'm posting below all of my 20+ training runs so you can see the progression since 2011 when I first started running.

| No running today after my long/hard run yesterday but I thought I should report in. I was pretty sore yesterday evening but supprisingly feel pretty good this morning. I scheduled not to run today and will pick it back up tomorrow. This whole week is an easyier week (except for yesterday). Next week I jump back to 70+ and then begin to taper down to the big race.
I really think I could have run an entire marathon at the paced I ran yesterday. The progressive effort seems to work best for me. If I just add a mile to each segment, making them 6 miles instead of 5 and then kick hard for 4 miles instead of 2 I should come close to a 3:12 marathon...way faster than my actual goal. :-)

| Took it easy today to make sure all my mechanical parts were still in good working order after the long run on Tuesday. Everything seems to be fine but my next two days of running will be light as I'm going to a conference in Austin. I'm not sure exactly where or when I will run but hoping to get in 4-5 miles each day.
Next week will be back to 70+.

Not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
