So I don't know how to start...I just ran 4 miles at a 8:43 pace and it wasn't fun. The goal was to run 10-15 seconds faster than race pace (9 minute miles.) During my run I really started to question if I should change my goal of running a 4 hour marathon to a slower pace. If I feel that bad for 4 miles, how can I run 26.2 miles at that pace? Next Wednesday I run 6 miles at the same pace, so I guess I will re-evaluate at that time. I will also make sure that I run in the morning (tonight was a little warm) and make sure I use some energy gel in my water.
Btw - yesterday was 2 months till the marathon!!!
