A quick marathon training update and some insight into training successes and faults.

Week 8 of marathon training just wrapped up. This nearly marks the halfway point in our training program. In this last week, we ran 13 miles for the first time in the program which is half of the mileage for the big race. In another 7 weeks, we will have our longest run of the training program- 20 miles. Effectively, I’m calling the end of week 8 the halfway point.
