Flying Pig Marathon: 2 weeks to go

Rest, rest, rest. This week should help recharge my batteries. Catch up on sleep, get some stretching in, think about eating the right foods (yeah, that's right, think about it). I also get a whopping three rest days.

Last week:

Monday: Rest
Tuesday: 7.6 miles 5x600
Wednesday: 5 miles
Thursday: 4.1 miles with strides
Friday: Rest
Saturday: 5.2 miles
Sunday: 16.2 miles

Weekly total: 38.1 miles (61K)
Year to date: 671 miles (1080K)

Here's the schedule. It calls for my last VO2Max workout and strides on the other days just to remind the legs what it's like to move fast. And the weekend run is 12 miles.

Monday: rest
Tuesday: 7 miles with 8x100
Wednesday: 8 miles with 3x1200
Thursday: Rest
Friday: 5 miles with 6x100
Saturday: Rest
Sunday: 12 miles

Looks like you have been training extremely well. I am excited for your F'n Pig run in Cincy. No wings before that one, right??

Can't believe you only have 2 weeks to go!!

Catching up on sleep is a good idea at this point!!

Thanks Ryan and yes, I will eat the right pre-race meal.

Sonia, plan major catchup on sleep.
