Hard to believe I'll be running my 7th marathon on Saturday. I trained so hard this summer and hope my race reflects that dedication & commitment. I ran my last speedwork session yesterday and had great 800 splits. I like to do mile repeats during marathon training but threw in a few 800 repeats this training cycling and my times improved drastically! I might actually do a separate post on that this week because I was seriously in shock to see the change.
Anyways, looks like this will be a week of easy runs before gutting out a PR (fingers crossed) on Saturday. I just got nervous typing that too.
