My First Marathon

Week #12 - Day 2

The rain from the hurricane finally stopped after about a good 30 hours. And it stopped early enough that by the time I got to the park there were only a few widely scattered puddles on the towpath. I headed south and did my 8 mile run, completing it in 78:13. I was looking to keep my heart rate under 80% which I managed to do (keeping it under 75% for most of the run, at least early on. Trying to overtrain, especially since I plan to do all 4 runs this week instead of cutting back to 3 like I have for the past month. So tomorrow I'm going to do a 5 mile run, and then probably attempt the long one of 18 miles on Saturday.
