Runs from October 16-October 22, 2011, 36.16 Miles

October 17, 2011

4.9 Miles
50:37 Time
10:20 Pace

Ah much better, and I smoked Greenwich Ave too.  I guess I am tapering now, though I might do a semi long run this Saturday.  Maybe I am semi tapering.  Here is my base mileage compared to my base when I started tapering for the Ocean Drive    Marathon, my first marathon.  They are actually somewhat similar.  Last 10 Weeks 38.78 OD vs 37.49 NYC, Last 20 Weeks 37.28 OD vs 37.78 NYC, Last 30 Weeks 33.47 OD vs 33.34 NYC, Last 40 weeks 29.55 OD vs 34.51 NYC.

Feeling good.  I have done yoga each day for the last 3 days at 3 different places, LA Fitness, Lululemon and and a local studio.

October 19, 2011

2.66 Miles
26:09 Time
9:50 Pace

Normally this distance is my speed route, but it was a little too wet and I was feeling too sluggish to try to gun it.

5.09 Miles
51:16 Time
10:04 Pace

New shoes part 2...I started wearing my new shoes which I put away after wearing them as I didn't want them to get too much wear before the race.  They should have 90 miles or so when I get to the start which is basically what I did for my first marathon.

10:34 Pace

Things just worked for me today.  Prior to today, my best time for this route was 2:50:49 or 11:09 pace and this was my fastest pace for runs 9 or more miles.  Not much fuel, two gels and 25 oz Gaterade.  Some cereal for breakfast.
