My training for the marathon continues to go pretty well. On July 3, I set a new personal best in the half marathon (1:56:25), thanks to my good friend Mike Brinkley, who drove up from Illinois to trek through town with me. Mike is quite the athlete and has completed several triathlons and marathons (including Boston).
This past Monday, I ran 17 miles on a treadmill. For whatever reason, my quads were quite sore afterward, so I've been taking it easy this week. I should be fully recovered by the weekend. My next super-long run will occur on Sunday, August 7, when I will run 19 miles at a steady pace, probably around 10:00 / mile.
