Another week of poor training. I tried to be positive but it's hard to not be running as much as I'd like. I decided to treat it like a taper for a big workout. I ran 3 miles warm-up then 17 miles basically as hard as I could. It was an out and back so the elevation and wind ended up averaging out. I did 5:38 pace for the 17 miles. I think that is great for how my training has been. Hopefully (crossing my fingers) I can stay on top of school and work long enough to get another month of quality training in and then run that same pace for the whole marathon in May. That's my goal.

Great workout! Are you running the Ogden Marathon? Looks like you'll be super competitive. Keep it up.

I am doing Ogden. The training isn't going perfect but I'm hoping it's good enough to get me a solid first marathon. Hope all your training is going great!
