So if i wanted to do a marathon in 7 .weeks

How far should i be able to do a long run this weekend?

My legs have finally woke up and i am running well again. I did a 6 mile temp run with 1/4 mile repeats on wednesday, a 9.25 mile run thursday night, and a 10.25 mile run last night.

I was looking at marathon plans the last couple days and it looks like if i do about a 16 miler this weekend i should be pretty much on pace to where i should be.

Any suggestions besides i’m nuts? Tri season is almost over i have to find something to do…

Anybody anybody???

Grant

2 hrs.

DO a two hour run this weekend.

That would be about 16 miles. my long run pace is around 8:10ish

Grant

Uh… what did your coach say?

considering my coach had me running like 12 miles a week during tri season. I’m not really paying attention anymore.

Grant

Uh… PS?

Don’t be ridiculous :wink:
.

Haha right i’d be doing 70 miles a week if he was coaching me… i also probably wouldn’t have gone backwards in my running this year.

Grant

Time to rethink that move, eh? :slight_smile:

Why_ only 12 miles???

NOOO idea…

Your limiter is running… and yet he keeps you from doing it???

Back to PS?

huh?? Paulo only coached me down at the camp he had in march he was never my “coach”.

And yes i was biking more then i was running yet i have been splitting between 23-25mph in every race this year. And on my best race just breaking 7min miles running.

Grant

gotcha
.

Como? Am I reading this right? 12 miles?

You should hire Mark to coach you… hell, I’m sure I can get a group of people to pay for it just to watch, LOL… :wink:

haha its on…

Grant

yeah i’d say the avg was between 12-20 but the last week i actually looked at it was something like 2 bricks and then one run… I’m like this doesn’t even make sense to me.

Grant

why don’t i have h2ofun coach me… he made it to worlds and i didn’t… he did make it right? i mean i thought i saw a post on it.

Grant

Obviously you should have gotten 200mm cranks.
