7 weeks

7 weeks of training to go til the marathon. This is it! The long haul and then...being done with one of my life goals.

So there are 3 weeks of 16 mile long runs, then 2 weeks of 18 mile long runs (might make the last one a 20 instead). Then 2 weeks to taper. Then, the marathon.

I thought being off 2 wks would put me behind...but it actually put my right on schedule to peak at the right time. No more weeks off! Let's just hope I can run 16 miles this weekend. Will be a new record for me! And then keep up on schedule.
