It's been a busy week! I meant to get this out on my blog a few days ago. Last week was another good running week in the books! I'm liking these really solid weeks and feeling really strong. A few runs, later in the week, I felt a bit tired but that's to be expected. Not terribly tired - but I could tell I ran a longer run the week before.
My plan called for a 12 mile long run but I was feeling pretty fantastic so I added an extra mile. I'm really pleasantly surprised how great I feel this marathon training cycle. I do still have 12 weeks left, so I may need to hold my words. I'm sure things will get tougher as I get closer to race day. I'm starting to see progress on my speed for long runs. I'm not sure if it's because there is no snow on the ground or I'm not running a treadmill or I'm actually getting fitter. I like to think I'm getting fitter! ;)
Stay tuned for my next blog post on my favorite books on training and where I got my training plan from!
