This was the first day of my 16 weeks marathon training. I am doing the RLRF training again with possibly a few tweeks. I will be comparing each these training runs to last years training for comparison.
Todays run was good considering I just finished a cycling time trial on Saturday. Avg. time was 3 sec. less and HR was 4 bpm less.

Frustrated...4 miles @ 8:07 pace.

4 The Lord has made everything [to accommodate itself and contribute] to its own end and His own purpose—even the wicked [are fitted for their role] for the day of calamity and evil.

First of all, this probably be my last post for about 10 days. We are going on a cruise and won't be back until Nov. 18th...... Yeah!!! I will probably be doing all of my runs on a TM on the ship :-(
This was the second training run in my 16 week marathon training. Today was a tempo run. It was supposed to be 2 warm-up, 2 tempo @ 6:45 and 2 cool-down but I decided before I started to run 3 tempo @ 6:45 knowing that would be a very achievable goal. My plan is to push the limits of this training session to try and have some cushion for my race goal. Last year, when I did this same training, I hit and exceeded almost all of the training paces and distances but fell well short of the 3:15 predicted marathon time. I'm not expecting a 3:15 marathon this time but would like to break the 3:20 mark.
As I was running the tempo miles today I was wondering why 6:26 (5K pace) was so much harder than this 6:45 pace :-)

| Ran Small Loop + Clockwise |
| 52º, 100% Humidity (Very Foggy) |
Target:
Tempo Run, 2 Warm-up, 2 @ 6:45 pace, 2 Cool-down
Decided to run 3 instead of 2 to make it a full Small Loop. Broke the warm-up and cool-down up a litte to have the best part of the loop for the 3 mile tempo. |
Matthew 8:23-26
23-25 Then he got in the boat, his disciples with him. The next thing they knew, they were in a severe storm. Waves were crashing into the boat—and he was sound asleep! They roused him, pleading, “Master, save us! We’re going down!â€
26 Jesus reprimanded them. “Why are you such cowards, such faint-hearts?†Then he stood up and told the wind to be silent, the sea to quiet down: “Silence!†The sea became smooth as glass.
