One year later

The 2010 Twin Cities Marathon was last Sunday, which got me thinking about this blog again.

The end of my post-race entry made it seem like a second marathon was unlikely, but here I am, six weeks away from running the Philadelphia Marathon. I still kinda doubt this will become a regular thing, but who knows? I mostly wanted to see if I could improve my time from TCM. That has definitely been the case based on my training runs so far. My short and medium distance runs are around 1.5 minutes per mile faster and my long runs are about 2 minutes per mile faster. I still won't be setting any land-speed records, but that's quite a bit faster than a year ago.

Today is a rest day, and tomorrow is a 12 mile stepback.
