Updating my totals for the month. Training has been pretty consistent, if relatively low volumes. I'm going to take the next week easy I think as I've been getting progressively more fatigued, and struggling to recover (without consistent sleep it's surprisingly hard to recover from even a short hard training session). But I feel like I've got the basis for a solid start to the year now. :-)

You're letting a little bit of rain stop you? If that was all that was standing in my way....


Me + Aero bars = stay back at least 15 feet.

Me + Aero bars + wet road = CRASH!!

Finished my last long run of the season today by completing the Woodlands Marathon. Sure wanted a 4:20 PR but that didn't happen. I really messed up my training by allowing myself to use long run Sundays as a social event instead of getting out there and doing what I needed to get done. Lesson learned and it won't happen again next year. My longest training runs were 16 miles and I knew I should have put in a few 20+ but I didn't due to "staying with the group". I was on track to my PR when reality hit me at mile 18 as you can tell by my run on Garmin, definitely needed more long runs!

Dude solid run! Are you going to keep doing long runs or do you plan some multisport racing?

Dennis, congratulations on completing the marathon! PR or not, you are a hero in my book. Well done!

Jackie, we had a very steep trail with 8 creek crossings and lots of mud. It was fun, but very exhausting. I've never done anything like this before.

Your training plan is a guide but you don’t blindly follow it. You shouldn’t know exactly what you are going to do until the day you are to do it.
