Yes, I am running a marathon as a long run. I'm also doing a 50k as a long run in August. Potentially another trail marathon. I should get 3-4 20+ mile runs, and 2-3 18-19 mile runs this cycle. Goal to average 45 mpw, peaking in the high 50s. Training starts next week-- this week I'm nursing injury.

I won't be undertrained for MCM. I'm determined as all hell.

MTA - I guess I should follow the formatting. Crap - I didn't see the HMs.

I'm in for this. Thanks Buckeye (can't believe I'm being nice to an OSU fan ) for kicking it off.

Yeah, I know I may be crazy trying to get a BQ in my first marathon, but right now that's what I'm shooting for. I'm already running better then I have in years - so here's to an optimistic summer and fall!

The current PR is from 1985, sort of irrelevant.

Mr. PH -

You are not sandbagging are you? I thought I recalled a 3:20 goal.

No sandbagging here. I wish I could do 3:20 ... maybe somewhere down the road. Lot's of guys on here that are in their early 40's are shooting for the 3:20 BQ, maybe it's one of them you are thinking of. I'm 46 and need a 3:30 to BQ. That's been the goal since day 1.

Not at it at all.
