Acording to my training plan here I have just finished my first marathon!
I did it in a time of 5 hours 28 minutes.
OK, in actual fact it took me 41 days, but it is a milestone !

That is most definitely the furthest and fastest I have ever travelled by foot in the last decade !
OK, it was my slowest speed to date, but I’m not to concerned about speed just now.
My goal is to finish the 10K in 4 weeks time; gulp, I can’t believe it’s so soon !
If I could maintain my current 13minute mile I should come in under 1 hour 20 minutes, lets set that as a goal !
Sarah Goodman, my 13 year old daughter decided to join me on my run tonight.
She did great, she did’nt slow me down any. I am keeping track of my training in a Google spreadsheet here.
We are in training for our upcoming fundraising events.
