Daily Total: 9 miles; Weekly Total: 40 miles; Per Mile Pace: 9:20; Days Until Marathon: 25
It's been 9 weeks since I embarked on this virtual treadmill and sadly I feel that my runner's endurance has actually depleted from past marathons. Needless to say, I'm beginning to freak the $*#@ out about actually qualifying for Boston and I'm revisiting the current worthiness of such a lofty goal. Shedding three minutes off my best marathon time was going to be, ostensibly, a piece of cake, yet has proven to be otherwise.
I've begun to taper off my total weekly mileage. Last week was 45, this week it's 40, next week is 35. For now I'll remain optimistic because there's not an appealing alternative. Who knows what magic may manifest on race day.
