42 miles on the treadmill this week.
You have some catching up to do if you're going to beat me.

"Hope" is not the word I'd want to use.

[/stolen from another thread] I don't...and if Donnie has even a single mile faster than twice that mile speed at Headlands, I'm gonna punch him in his balls.

100 mile months is nothing to sneeze at. Good luck!

I am running a marathon September 13. I am slow. I was told I should post about it here. I ran 105 miles in the month of July and I ran 99 in the month of August. I do not feel prepared. I am worried Based on the runs you've posted on FB, you're pretty well setup to have a great race. It will hurt from mile 18 or so on, but that's when you just suck it up and carry on.
That is kind of what I am thinking. It is a very large loop around the city of Sioux Falls that is apparently scenic. I am thinking I will be ok. I am not going to be setting any records but I think I will finish in a respectable time.

Yeah. Each loop was basically one long uphill followed by a long, pretty steep downhill. Great for the lungs...not do great for the quads. I do specific downhill training too, but this was a bit much for them, lol.
Hope the knee starts feeling better. Sounds like you've got a fantastic base mileage to lead you into this next cycle. Goal? I keep thinking I should do some downhill work for insurance... maybe I'll step up my game. I've got my first full in Feb, then another 5 weeks later in March. I think for my first one I'm going to go pretty conservative, maybe 7:20-7:30ish pace. The one in March has a net downhill (the reason I should start the downhill training) and depending how the first ends up and how I feel, I'll probably target a 7:05-7:10 and shoot for a Boston qual if I'm lucky. March course profile:
That's a really good plan...use that first one as a learning experience. Pacing is such a huge part of a good marathon time. You basically have to ride this really fine edge from stat to finish. For me focus was the key to me getting my BQ. Focus on race specific training, but mostly in the race itself. It's all about settling into your goal pace and tuning everything else out. In your first you're going to be so distracted by everyone around you, the discomfort you might start feeling, etc.
But shit....if you feel good at your BQ pace, then might as well go for it.

Thanks, nice having some confirmation on my plan. I figure if it's anything like my first half a few years back, it'll be overwhelming on its own. I've got a small half-marathon in Nov I'm hoping to benchmark my progress with. If I can hold my 6:50 pace (I think it'll be easier than the last half I did with the extra endurance from the 20-mile long runs), then I can nudge in just under 1:30 for a new PR.

Forgot to mention I did Conquer the Bridge this weekend with friends from work. Despite taking it easy in the heat, I managed to place 182 of 3147. Fun race, but brutal hills lol.

Well done. 4:34 is nothing to sneeze at.
That feeling at mile 20 will not change with future marathons lol.
