13.1 to 26.2
I ran 4 miles non-stop today in 33:27. Even though I still plan on walking during the marathon, I’m thinking of incorporating non-walking workouts during smaller runs (6 and under). I was tired at the end of today’s run, but in a good way. It was that tired that you are proud of because you know you finished something well. My body should have enough time to recover by Sunday’s marathon.
Did you read what I said? Yup..I said marathon. I have decided to run the full marathon. I haven’t experienced any adverse effects from my 16 miler on Saturday. So I’m upping the ante. My goal? Just finish without hurting myself. If I complete it in 7 hours, great! If I complete it 6, hmm.. maybe a bit too fast, but AWESOME. I just better not be complaining the next day. Complete it in 5 hours…yeah right!? Like I said, I want to finish WITHOUT hurting myself.
Stay tuned to see what happens.
wish me luck!
