Battling of achilles bursitis, somewhat in check. Thankfully it is not bugging me like before. That was big worry for me, but so far so good.
After all the weeks/months of just running to log those miles, this week is my first week of targeted marathon training, and so far so good.
I ran 10.5 mi. earlier this week and avg. 8:13 splits. This was after the first 3.1 a 9:02 pace. The last 7.4 were at 7:52 splits.
I ran 5 miles this morning:
Mile 1 - warm up @ 9:10 split;
Miles 2-4 @ tempo in 20:07, 6:42 splits, needed to be at 6:54 splits, a little too fast;
Mile 5 - cool down 9:22 split.
I felt great, hopefull that'll continue. Hope everyone else is doing great!

Nice work. Sounds like you're right back on track. It's gonna be a good battle between you and your sister.
Sweet run, Lee! Stay on top of your home rehab of your achilles and I'm sure you will be just fine! I expect you to finish either before me or right there with me at the CIM! ;) At the very least, I know you're going to qualify for Boston. That is a race you HAVE to do!
