Easy Miles	Marathon Pace Miles	Threshold Miles	VO2 Max Miles	Total Distance
5.30	8.00	0.00	0.00	13.30

Ran the Pocatello marathon course for the last time before next weeks race. The temperature when I started was in the 40's, and to me that was outstanding. I even wore gloves and I started at 7am. I tried to keep my pace slow, but a 6:30 pace on the downhill felt so slow when I really wanted to average 7 minute miles but it didn't happen.

I ran 13.3 miles at an overall 6:30 pace in 1:26. I felt really good and hopefully I'm ready for next week. The last two miles (mostly flat) to end the run I picked it up to a 6:16, 6:13, just to get the feel of that area, and what it will feel like when I get it on! next week

Kory, you are soooooo ready. Have a great week and a great race.

Great workout. You will rock next weekend.

I am still about 95% sure I am running the HM, so I will see you at the finish line next Saturday. Looking forward to hearing about another hometown win for you.

What is you target time? I am shooting for 1:15ish for the HM.

Jeff - I'm going to target 2:40. I think I need to try to be aggressive even though this is a tougher course than Ogden and Salt Lake and Definitely St. George. If I can hit 1:19 the first half that would be good. I think I can average a 6 minute mile pace the first 13 miles. Then I want to see if I can run the last four miles of the around a 5:50 to 5:50 pace.

The rolling hills is where the pace will be hard to tell what consistent pace I can stay at.

Everything is looking good for your marathon. Someday I hope that I can say that 6:30 pace felt slow. Good job!
