Day 3 of 126 - Marathon Training

Well so much for fun running, now the gloves come off, so to speak.  I bought this book a while ago called, "Advanced Marathoning". It is rather like Joe Friel's, "Cyclist Training Bible".  Just not as well written!  But it's got a general plan for an 18 week marathon train-up that has 75-95 miles per week.  It's rather intense.  Looking forward to it and seeing how my speed increases.  I'm pretty confident I can run right at the 3 hour mark right now but would like to blow it out of the water.

In other news,  I ran a pretty good 10k at 37:30.  I'd love to get to the 35's but all in good time.  The weather is getting downright oppressive here so, the races will be few.  Well all from here.  Here's a lovely shot post yesterday's tempo run...
