Want marathon shape
I didn't get my other run in but, it is what it is. I did 20.41 mile in 5h10m and burned 2895 calories. I got some good sleep during the weekend, a 10 hour and a 12 hour sleep, must have needed it. My problem is that I am still sore. I went back and took a look at my training log. Looking at the log always tells the truth. From the beginning of February my long run was 7.02 miles and all my daily run were 3+ miles. I then start my marathon training thinking I had a base, which I don't, long run of 7 miles in 10 weeks. I then ran down Salina Canyon on 4/6 for 13.26 miles. Two weeks later we do a 16.07 mile run down the canyon. No wonder I am sore. I know better than this. I am wondering if the marathon on 6/11 is doable for me. I always preach to everyone out there that you should slowly build up your mileage over at least a 16 to 18 week period. Staying on a schedule for the long runs. I want marathon shape. Not the 6 hour marathons I have been doing. I can live with 4 to 5 hour marathons. Need to take a look at what will get me where I want to be
