long gap

long gap in posting....

yesterday: 10 miles race pace
sustained: 7:43 for 10 miles. 17 seconds slower than required race pace

today: 20 miles easy
sustained: 9:30 for 20 miles. things started to hurt pretty good around mile 17. unlike the last 10/20 weekend I did not have to stop and walk during this Sunday's long run.

it's unclear to me if I have an extra 17 seconds per mile to give for the full marathon distance. It will be interesting to find out in three weeks.
