24 miles today......I think I am ready

for 26.2 miles!

dang, I've never heard of anyone running that far in their marathon training. You certainly can do 26 if you can do 24. When is the race. You probably need lots of recovery time after doing 24. How long did it take to do 24?

Good job GiGi!! Was that your last long run before the marathon?

 

[Gymgurl]

Yep last long run....thank god.....I think for me the 24 thing was a mental thing...I know now that I can do the 26.2. Also It makes hitting the wall less likely.

[Gymgurl]

[Gymgurl]

[Smurfy]

Still early in the season, you should plan a half Ironman. This would be the year to do it!
