So, today was a scheduled 16 miler... And for the first time (in this training) I need to slow down;) I seem to stick around 9:30 or less. Problem being I'm kinda dieing around 12 miles:( Last week it was a nutrition issue, but this week- I dunno?? And- I've felt I've needed a nap all day!
Perhaps the workweek got to me, or the lack of Xtraining.... Legs were dieing before the lungs, and back was sore. Gotta get used to the job and get back on track!

Official re-start
This week marks the pick-back-up of marathon training. I found (quickly) that running in the deep south through summer was pretty depressing! Therefore I focused of tri training and let the long runs go...and speed runs for that matter! It's showing now, but it will get better!
I don't have a mantra for this training yet/ haven't had enough time to think of anything but "you need to go!"
10 miles this Saturday, fought for neg splits but was off by 2 sec per mile;( like I said- lots of work to do!
