Late Post, but here you go......
Last Sunday I ran 16 miles by myself! It was hard after the 13th mile, but I got it done. Marathon training is so time consuming, but I find that if I start early (4 to 6am and even sometimes at 230am) that I can get it done and out the way so I can move on with my day. Weekends are very valuable to me because Monday through Friday I am busy working!
I tried out the Hoka One One shoes, they felt really good BUT the next day my achilles was sore. I also got a pair of Asics Kayano 20's which I will be testing out for my next run this weekend. I am 8 weeks out from Little Rock. I have 4 halfs, 1 10k and 1 5k prior to the marathon. After the marathon, I have another one 2 weeks later! So training is very imperative as I can't risk injury.
Will keep you all updated on my training. This last run I stuck with the Jeff Galloway method of doing 1:1 with negative splits. Finiah around 3:30, but time is NOT a factor for these marathons. I just want to finish and finish strong.
