Marathon update - 6 weeks to go

This week hasn't gone quite to the plan. A problem with my right hamstring meant that I have had to miss one run, shorten a couple of others and run everything slower than scheduled. But at least it was a cutback week so hopefully it won't make too much difference over all. Better to miss a few days rather than do any more serious damage. I should have a better idea how things are after the next couple of days when I try a couple of runs at marathon pace or faster.

So in the end last week's total was only 26.7 miles. The mileage for this coming week is over 46 miles. The long run this week is the second of the three 20 mile runs.
