back on track...

...well, unfortunately I haven't been on the Oda field track recently due to my business schedule. I feel much better after the cold is gone. Missed 2 weeks of running when it counts the most in a Marathon preparation so I won't aim too high at Nagano. Last Sunday I ran a solid but rather slow Long Run together with Chika, June, Chad and Christiane covering 34km in 6min pace. This felt quit OK and this week I did some more workouts. No speed work up to now but at least putting some Mileage into the bank. Long Run today was ok too. 30km in 2:21 (4:45 pace). I started slowly at 5min pace for which I had to hold back quit a lot. Worked my way down to 4:30 during the second half. Had no desire to speed up to MT pace towards the end.
Still, I am satisfied with todays workout and I hope to get in shape for another sub3.
