I did 12 today and my program called for my planned marathon pace (I'm shooting for 8 min/mile) plus 45-60 seconds. So it was a leisurely, lsd run. I can't tell you how pleased I was when that 12th mile was done and the thought of 14.2 more seemed impossible. The temp was 90 degrees by the time I finished at 10 am and I'm hoping that had a lot to do with me feeling whooped. I'm starting to think I'm in over my head.
