After a lot of miles last week, I thought starting off today would be hellish, but I had another easy few miles<\/a>. It wasn’t a killer pace, but not slow either. I’m really starting to think my slow times in marathons is all mental, that I just don’t stay focused, because I’m not trying THAT hard. That I’m going for lots of marathons and so don’t want to risk injury.
\nBut I’m almost at the end of my road for this year and it’s time to start going for speed. Also, got an email from the London Marathon, they are making selections next week. I hope I get it, no idea how I’ll afford it, but I will find a way if I get it. If not I will find a way to do Rome. I need to get out and I need to travel, too much time around here drives me really crazy.
\nBut yeah, if training keeps going this well, I think things are going to start looking up. Next year my first goal is a sub 20 minute 5k. And we will see how marathons work out, I don’t plan on doing too many, Rome or London, Savin Rock if I can, Puglia if everything works out properly. We will see. There are many options in front of me, and I like being able to just figure things out as I go. Definitely taking next year a lot easier. So you guys have fun, keep running and remember, if Gil can run, then so can you!<\/p>\n
