Looking forward to the New York City 1/2 Marathon this weekend! The field is absolutely STACKED, and thinking that there should be a few sub 60 times assuming good weather. Ryan Hall talks about training and God as his coach, Haile Gebresselassie is racing the Vienna 1/2 in April, and more on Lukas Verzbicas.
Tuesday, Mar 15 - 6 miles (anywhere from 50-60 minutes). Did and out and back on the trail twice - first 3 miler was around 24 minutes (a little faster than I wanted), but didn't look at my watch on the 2nd loop and definitely slowed it down. Daylight savings is pretty awesome with it getting dark so late, so trail running will be more prevalent moving forward. Legs were tired starting out, but felt pretty good finishing up.
Really making it a point these last few weeks to work my butt off, but have fun doing so. And it has carried over pretty well, as I feel mentally refreshed and very motivated to run. Working on overall fitness and losing about 5-10 more lbs to get to a more optimal race weight, which will come off pretty quickly as my mileage increases. 33 more days till Boston!
