Hey Q this thread has been dead for awhile. I figured around June everyone would show back up. I still have not committed to this but if all goes well this weekend at Bayshore it is my top choice for this fall. I am not sure how I will handle training for my next marathon but I have a lot of races I would like to incorperate into my training. I am doing the Crim and the Brooksie along with the Volkslauf and a few 5ks here and there. I guess I will just train for the race of the month and use a long run on Sundays to keep up my marathon fitness.
At any rate it should be a fun summer for me.
Whats your training plan?

My training starts on 6/1: Zoomy Plan Hey Larry and Kirsten, I'm in the process of putting my plan together now. I'm actually having some difficulty w/the last six weeks. I'm soliciting help in the Coaching Forum, but I'm not getting far. I think I'll cut/paste the stuff into the Marathon Madness forum. ZZ,I will probably pour over your plan at work tomorrow now too! I did notice that you've got the Seaway 15k earmarked. Are you doing it? I'm planning on it, and my wife is going to do the 5k. Larry, I'll be doing the Crim as well, so I might actually get to meet a coupla RA peeps this year. COOL! I'll hit ya back tomorrow. Watching basketball and trying to seduce the wife!!!

That race was the real seed for the NEED of a 305. Prior to that it had been just a want. Several miles in the middle of that race were not well marked (if at all), so I had no way to gauge my pace. This year I have a score to settle. I already have one 15k PR for the year and that was on a brutally hilly, icy and snowy course. Seaway should be a relative breeze.

	ZZ, I'm checking out your plan and i noticed you have the Seaway run on June 21st...it's scheduled for June 28th this year... Also, I've got a couple questions about your plan, but I want to compare it to mine a bit more first. MTA: http://www.mlive.com/seawayrun/

	Oh, weird...a couple of months back they had it scheduled as the 21st. Wonder why they moved it back...? Thanks for pointing that out--I probably wouldn't have even noticed!
