My triathlon season ended but I still have one more race this year. A couple of months ago I signed up for the Philadelphia Marathon so I really have to focus my training on running with biking / swimming saved for the days when I do cross training. I only have nine weeks to prepare my body for the marathon, I hope I have enough time. The marathon training plans I've found on the web are typically for a twenty week training program so I jumped right into week eleven of the training plan. Running four miles or eight miles on a weeknight wasn't a big deal. Yesterday I ran sixteen miles and I felt really good during the run. I had a minimal amount of soreness after the run but Monday afternoon is when I really started to feel the stiffness in my legs. Today is a rest day so hopefully the soreness will diminish quickly.

but I have promises to keep,
and miles to go before I sleep,
and miles to go before I sleep."
