I will be taking it east on the mileage this week in preparation for the SGM next week, my plan is 4 miles each day except for Saturday I'll do a 10 miler and I'm thinking on Wednesday of doing a longer run than the 4 miles probably a 6 to 7 miler with some hills in there. Again, this all subject to change if my legs aren't recovering then I will cut back even more, I want them fresh for race day. My average pace was 8:40 with a total time of 35:47, the old legs felt a lot better than they did on Saturday so that was a good thing, my HR average was at 139 and I had a sub 8 minute mile in the middle so I will count that as a MP mile (7:54)... After the run I did my upper body weight training and then some push-ups to finish off the day, I hope things go well these next 2 weeks I am excited about the marathon, its been 3 years since I've been able to run a Marathon because of injuries so I am hopeful. I don't really know what kind of shape I'm in, I know I can finish but I want a sub 3:30 but I don't know if that's possible... See ya tomorrow.
