13 miles in under 2 hours between 1:30 and 3:30 this morning. Temp: High 30s
Hoping to do at least half a marathon each training day (Fri., Sat., Sun., Tues.,and Thur.) That is, at least 2.5 marathons for this week and the next. If I can kick it up another notch by the 3rd week from now, I will. I'm hoping to get at least 4.5 marathons a week by the end of December.
Then, if I can do that, I will try 135 miles in under 60 hours. If I can do that (while being able to use all of my equipment properly), then I consider myself ready for Arrowhead sans the incredibly low temperature, which cannot be simulated in even the coldest of freezers here in Arkansas, so that will be one factor that I will have to experience for the first time in Minnesota.
The more I achieve, the more I want to run. The more I prepare, the less fear I have.
