Wow, what an awesome week! I did miss one run this week, but it was still a GREAT week of training. Last week, I mentioned that I was beginning to become a little worried about my training and how much time I had left to train. After this week, I must say, I am totally happy with my training and looking forward to the Chickamauga Battlefield Marathon in November! What makes this week so GREAT? Well, to say the least, I ran a 24 miler on Saturday.
Here are this week's results:
Monday: 7.1 mi/59:46/L1-29:33/L2-30:13/AVG. HR.=142/MAX. HR.=157
Tuesday: 10.3 mi/1:27:13/L1-43:27/L2-43:46/AVG. HR.=146/MAX. HR.-161
Wednesday: Unable to Run
Thursday: 10.2 mi/1:31:10/AVG. HR.=144/MAX. HR.=166 Ran with Stager
Friday: REST
Saturday: 24 mi/3:52:13/AVG. HR.=139/MAX. HR.=148
Sunday: REST
Mileage=51.6
It is very refreshing running a 24 miler. I am not sure if that was a good idea or not, nevertheless, I was able to do it and to do it fairly easy. I will take it easy this upcoming week and hopefully on Saturday do a 3 hour run. I think if I can get one more good 3 hour run in, I can taper and feel pretty good about my next marathon.
Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying their running in this cool weather. Have a GREAT week and KEEP RUNNING!!

Nothing beats a good run! I’ve been running for over 30 years, and somehow I enjoy it more with every mile. Marathon days are behind me now, but I’m incredibly proud to have completed 14 marathons over the years. These days, my goals have shifted, and I’ve really enjoyed running one half marathon each month — woot! Running 3–4 times a week feels just right. Most importantly, spending time with my wife and my girls, Juliana (16) and Jessa (14), is my greatest priority these days. GR8FL!
