I finished my second week of training mostly successfully... My last run today was an epic meltdown. I was supposed to run 16 miles with 8 at marathon pace (6:43). Pfitzinger specifically wants you to run the last 8 at marathon pace. So I did. Sort of. After 6:41, 6:37, 6:44, 6:44, 6:48, I was unable to keep the pace, and finished with 6:59, 6:56, 6:53. Average is 6:48, which is not so bad, considering that I was tired, hot, and the first 16 miler in a long time, but I don't like the way it went down. OK, just one, run I'll take it.
