4 miles on the TMs at work, had to be there early today.

most pitiful marathon training cycle ever...  I really have no business running a full marathon next month (on 45-50 mpw) but I will anyway!

41F, 7:15 AP.  Easy with a 3-mile mini tempo @ GMP (6:40) on the way back.  Hoping to get a real MP run in this weekend.

The triage on my plan means focusing on MP and LT this next month, with maybe 1 more speed session in the next couple weeks.  I don't think I've put in the mileage to be able to hold my GMP for a full marathon, but hopefully I'll have some good indicator workouts in the next month.

43F, 7:24 AP.  Progressed to a GMP mile on the way back.  As I finished up, I enjoyed the last glimmer of light I'll get for awhile on these early morning runs, thanks to DST.  Stupid DST.
