My Story of a Marathon and How I Survived it All : Day 154

Official Marathon Training

I felt pretty sluggish on the run today. I think I was ready to be done before I even woke up. ;D

Here's today's times :D

8 miles

1 hour 5 minutes 50 seconds

Average Mile

8 minutes 13 seconds

Staying pretty steady on my pace. It seems that I can maintain a 8 minute mile for the first 4 miles or so, and then every mile adds about 5 seconds to my pace after that. Which should put me at about a 10 minute mile pace for the marathon.

I'm okay with that, because that pace would get me finished {not including potty breaks} at about 4 hours and 22 minutes, way under my 5 hour goal. :D

I'm thinking I might actually be able to do this! :D

Now, to go eat more bread. ;D

I've been enjoying lots of my yummy strawberry jam on my wheat toast. :D

10 weeks 3 days down, 7 weeks 4 days to go!!!
