When I checked the temperature outside this morning, I thought 54 degrees would be pretty nice. Then I stepped outside and felt the wind chill and had to step back in and grab a sweat shirt. The wind ended up being in our faces a few times this morning and it made running a bit more difficult. Kept the pace pretty easy today as Met is still recovering from a cold. Picked up the pace a little the last couple of miles after Meg ended at 6. I have been studying the schedules in the Advanced Marathoning book by Pete Pfitzinger and have been thinking about using the 18 week 70 mile schedule to train for my next marathon which will either be Ogden in May or SGM. The first week of the schedule starts out just over 50 miles and contains some midweek runs of 11-16 miles which could prove to be difficult to complete given my work schedule. In order to complete these runs I will have to get up about 30 minutes early than usual........or just run a lot faster.
