Ramping up

With just over a month to go until the Cayman Islands Marathon, I've ramped up my training. I ran 140 miles in October, which is more than I've run in a month since March 2008. I completed a 20-miler in 3:06:25 on the morning of October 31. Thanks to Mark for accompanying me about six of those miles.

November will feature increased mileage through mid-month. I'll get one more 20-miler in on either the 14th or the 15th, and after that I'll be tapering. It's still too early to tell if I am in marathon PR shape or not, but I'm feeling pretty good.
