This blog is about my running experience. I am not a physician, nutritionist or personal trainer. I am a runner. I do not know it all. I am only writing from my own experiences. I finished my first marathon on June 3, 2012. Who knows where my feet will take me next!

M2T W11

I'll be making some changes to my long runs for the next few weeks.  My last training cycle I had two 20 milers and a 22.  I only ran one 20 miler and the 22, so that's what I'll do again.  This week's long run will probably happen on Thursday or Friday and will be 13-15 miles. I plan to head to Fresno and then the Bay Area to visit my Dad who is currently in a nursing/rehab facility.

This is week 11 of training. After this week, race day will be five weeks away.

You get some breathing room following last week's tough workouts, including a break from the track. You'll have three short, easy runs, your last marathon-pace run, and two days of rest. Save your energy for Saturday: Your long run will be 20 miles.

Sunday:  Rest Day
Monday: 5 Miles Easy w/4 Strides (pace 9:52)
Tuesday:  8 Miles Easy (pace 9:52)
Wednesday:  Rest
Thursday: 10 Miles w/8 Miles @ MP (marathon pace 9:09)
Friday:  5 Miles Easy
Saturday:  20 Miles LSD (pace 10:04-11:04)

Total planned miles: 48
