Runnin Down a Dream

Here it is... When you lay it out like this, it doesn't look nearly as time consuming. Or intimidating. Or does it?

Here's a summary of my training paces...

• EZ - Easy Runs, done at an average 9:15/mile
• TPO - Tempo Runs, done at an average 8:00/mile
• IVL - Interval/Speed Runs, done at 6:34/mile for the speed intervals
• LSD - Long Slow Distance Runs, done at an average 9:30/mile
• YSO - Yasso 800s Runs, done at 7:20/mile pace per 800

I hope to finish the marathon on June 4 in 3:40:59 or less to qualify for Boston. 749 total miles, plus the training paces above, should get me there. Of course, pending good nutrition, rest, and a whole lot of heart.
