RLRF WORKS!

I just wanted to share a quick post that the Run Less Run Faster plan is working!   Today I did my 20 miler at a 8:19 pace.  Granted I did get tired at the end and I blame this partially to my walking around too much yesterday but the majority of my miles were around 8:10.  I am pretty happy about this because now I really know that a 3:30-3:40 marathon is within my reach!!

I made Scott take a picture of me right after.  Don't make fun,  I know I look like I was a walking glass of limeade :)  I also wore my compression socks today because it was cool outside so I knew I wouldn't get too hot.




Also another exciting thing happened on my run this morning.  I ran past Nate Appleman from Chopped All-Stars!  The cool thing is that he is in this month's Runner's World Mag.  I was tempted to yell out "Hey I just saw you in Runner's World!" but I didn't. I resisted :)  But the girl who he was running with had on the same limeade shorts as me!




Hope you had a great run today if you were out! Have a great weekend!

    Nice 20-miler. I'll have to look into that RLRF when I get back to marathoning next spring!

    I had a great lil' 4-miler today... and the fall weather was amazing!

    Great run! I think I'll have to look into RLRF for my next round of training. I keep hearing great things about it. Right now, I just want to survive my marathon :)
