Marathon Update

Finished the second of the 15 mile long runs today. I was cruising right along until about mile 12.75 when I hit The Wall. It was weird. I think it was mostly mental because my body felt fine I just had to stop and walk. I was running alone so that made it a little harder. I finished the 15 miles in 2:24:02 which is a 9:36 average mile. Not too bad considering the final 2 miles took 22 minutes by themselves. I am running an official half marathon next week. I have set my goal at 1:59:00 which is a 9:06 per mile pace. I’ll let you know how it goes.
