My schedule called for a 14 mile run today - Christmas Eve. Come on, it is Christmas Eve take a break. I could run tomorrow - Christmas Day or the next day - Sunday? I don't think so. 14 miles had to be run so off I went. I finished the 14 miles at an averge pace of 8.57 and felt really strong afterwards. I tend to be a slow starter so miles 8 - 14 were my best. This was a milestone run for me and is increasing my mental confidence for my next marathon. I felt my thigh muscle strain the entire time but not to the point that I needed to adjust my pace.
Suggested marathon training playlist song - 'Let It Be' by the Beatles.
Day #52 - 14 Miles, 8.57 Pace.
