I have four months to train so thats good because my weekly long run is only 15 miles so far. This weekend I'll try 18. But its good to see that you haven't let diabetes get in the way of things you want to do. Keep it up, and run strong.!! |
26.2! Yeah, work on extending the long runs. I'll be interested in hearing how that goes for you. Now see, I'm probably not even going to consider making a run for 26.2 until 2010 at the earliest, but one of the things I've been trying to figure out is whether I just follow the classic marathon plans of long runs of up to 20 miles, then trusting that the training will be enough to handle an additional 6.2 miles on race day, or if as a diabetic I should make some sort of plan to go into the distance beyond 20 miles so I can find out what it'll be like out beyond the glycogen wall.
I don't know, I really don't know right now.
