Go Big or Go Home!

Hey Guys!!

That whole thing about exercise giving you energy must be true. I ran almost 19 miles today, on a Thursday and I'm not tired. It could be related to the double espresso I had at 4pm to knock out a pm workout though. lol.

Between that and reading every Mo Farrah quote I swear I'm pumped for every run, every day. I won't mention my Flotrack addiction.

So here we are 10 weeks out from Boston. I am in deep! There is no looking back. I have no fear. I love it. In past race build ups I have focused too much on the what ifs'. I had doubts. I refuse to toe the line knowing I didn't give everything.  It is going down!!!!

Now, I am gunning for my best. I am so focused and intent on painting the best training picture I can. I want to enjoy my marathon. And kick some ass. I take my easy runs very seriously. I have nailed some faster stuff that I've never done before. It is so exciting!

Here are some training details.

I'm in my 3rd week of 95 miles.

Here's my last week or so…

1/26 Sunday 15 miles. middle 5 at 6:20-6:30's pace.
