I must say I didn't make it through your entire running history, but I did quote you in another thread: http://www.runningahead.com/forums/topic/7abd1703ee934de593edfa33b0ea243a
Hi, Tom. The City of Oaks HALF marathon's one of the two I'm looking at. Did you run in COO last year? I didn't see it mentioned in your marathon-post but I might have missed it! What I understood from what you've written is that your plan for training for your fall marathon is to run slower overall in order to help improve your aerobic fitness instead of concentrating so much on fast, hard running. This is a good time to be building a base, and my mostly uneducated guess from what you've said is that this would indeed be the area you can make the most gains in. Good luck in your training! Janell
