Weekly Summary 7/4/2010

Weekly total: 55

After battling a string of injuries and one disaster of a marathon, I have finally put together 3 solid weeks of training. Not to jinx myself but I think that I’m ready to start pushing a little harder as I move into my marathon training.

My focus for the next 3 months is on increasing the mileage. I would like my weekly average to be in the mid 60s and peak around 80. I need to slow the pace down though. 1 or 2 sub 7:30 runs is ok but most of the rest need to be in the 8-8:30 range.

My last 3 weeks have been in the mid 50s. This week I would like to at least top 60.
