I’ve decided not to use the Louisiana Marathon (January 17th)
as my qualifying race for Boston.
Unfortunately, I’ve had enough issues with staying healthy and with
hitting all my long runs that I don’t think it’s the race for me. To clarify, I feel like I could qualify at
the Louisiana Marathon, I just don’t think I could do it at the pace I’d like.
My new goal is to qualify at the New Orleans Rock N’ Roll
Marathon (February 28th). My
backup to this race will be the Zydeco Marathon in Lafayette a few weeks
later. Honestly, I’m ready to be
finished with marathon training. The
marathon is just an odd distance/speed for me.
I’m really comfortable with anything at or below 13.1 miles, or anything
longer than a marathon (although, I haven’t done any ultras in quite a while).
Week XV:
Training Pace:
6:10 (have been hitting it pretty consistently)
Long Run: doesn’t
matter…haven’t been hitting it.
Music: Started the book Leadership and Training
for the Fight by Paul Howe. It’s not
great, but it passes the time.
