46 days to the marathon! I can't wait until this brutal training schedule is over. Did I mention I ran 16 miles last Saturday? The worst, though, is the middle-of-the-week training runs. Tonight is only 4 miles, but tomorrow is 8. Eight miles after work! And that will go up to 10 in a few weeks. What was I thinking??

On the upside (knocking on wood), this is the farthest I've ever gotten in training without injury. I do have two bad toes and a nasty blister, but I can run through those.



EDIT: My blister is actually a bit worse than I thought, and it's interfering a bit with my running, so maybe I spoke too soon. So far, I've been ok just running slower than normal. Hopefully I don't have to cancel any runs. Oy.
