I just signed up for the Grand Rapids Marathon Training run. It is planned for 20 miles and it is along the actual marathon route. This will be my last long run before the marathon, so I'm anxious for the weekend to get here. Currently the weather is looking like it will cooperate and be in the low 60's and partly sunny.
My initial thoughts are to run a fairly relaxed start to the run, maybe even in the 10 minute arena. If I feel good, I can slowly speed my pace up and start pushing towards 9:30's. Ideally I'd like to run some 9 - 9:10 miles after 15 miles. Mostly, I'm just interested in covering the distance. It will be my 3rd run over 18 miles this training cycle.
