My first ...I'm doing the Philadelphia Marathon! My first destination race as well. My requirements were cold weather and flat course. And I like the idea of loops. I'm always nervous that I'll be too far away from my car or a bathroom and have issues getting back! And thanks! If I get in the thick of training and need some ideas I'll email you!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08584053153035873191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6137646469767562765.post-67327485686102916382016-09-01T11:10:42.272-04:002016-09-01T11:10:42.272-04:00Hooray for marathon training!

My group and I tend to do "loops" so that we can start at one place, run out, return and head back in a different direction. In the fall, too, there are training groups that run the Fort4Fitness course. I think Fleet Feet is doing one next weekend. Email me if you want (kmtruesdell at gmail) and I can give you some ideas.

Easy runs getting slower and slower and not feeling "easy", long runs feeling like slogging the miles. I finally had an easy run this week that was back to my normal easy pace again. Couldn't believe it! Any tips on where to run when it comes to the long, long runs of marathon training? Being my first marathon this fall, I've not run further than 14 miles at a time. I did that around my neighborhood last spring but if I run the same 3 mile loop for all of my long runs I may just poke my eyes out. Out and back on the greenway? Anywhere else I'm missing?Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08584053153035873191noreply@blogger.com
