Marathon Training Week 15 (!!!!)

Well, my last week of tough training is done. Hello TAPER!

Monday: 4.5 easy recovery miles with Sarah (average pace: 11:10)

Tuesday: rest (read: RAIN)

Wednesday: rest (John had a night meeting which preempted my track workout. Much pouting.)

Thursday: 5 miles (average pace: 10:23)

Friday: 3.57 fun miles with Kim (average pace: 10:18)

Saturday: 20 miles!! (average pace: 11:37)

Sunday: rest (read bbq with friends trying not to eat everything in sight)

Week total miles: 33.07 miles

My left calf had been acting up after the half, and I was happy that it seemed to work itself out by my 20 miler. It's still a little tight, but not anything I'm concerned about. Today I get to go see my sister's new house and spend time with my family. Happy Memorial Day to everyone! And my heartfelt thanks to the men and women who've served and who continue to serve our country.
