Its coming up!

Only 15 days until the marathon - ahhhh! Can't believe its almost here. I remember when I started this blog and was getting ready to run my second race. How insane! Anyways...

Tuesday night was more pacing work. Ran out and back pacing myself. My body was still a little tired from RTB, so I took it easy. No reason getting injuried 2 weeks before the race.

Running about 12-13 this week - I'm gonna be in Cape Cod for Denis' wedding, so I'll be running there. Nice change of pace from Central Park.

Tuesday Night workout

Last night we worked on pacing. Ran with Jenny. Did a warm-up from E65 to E72 and from there we paced from E72 to E90 (1 mile). Then paused for 2 minutes to recover, then ran back to E72 - 15-20 seconds faster then we ran there. Then we repeated this. And then we did 2 Cat hill repeats. My toe felt ok, a little sore, but didn't prevent me from doing the workout and actually pushed it so it was challenging. Nice Tuesday workout.

Short run on Saturday

This Saturday we did a short run - only 8 miles. Nice recovery from last week's 20 miler and prepping for next week's 20 miler. Other then that run, took it a little easy, did cross training on Monday, but otherwise off letting my toe rest. On Saturday afternoon, I stubbed my toe at my friends pool and took off a chunk of skin. It's still slightly tender, so I didn't run so it could heal for this weekends run.

Tonight is group training. We will be working on pacing.
