Terrible first week of training for my May marathon. Nothing like 45 treadmill miles with a whopping 8 miles outside! Sadly, this will be my lowest weekly mileage until the week before the marathon.

Finally got outside yesterday for my 6 miles. It wasn't as cold as I thought it would be, but the wind was howling.
totally lost my speed since my last outing - did the 6 in 54:30, around 9:03 pace. Before I took my winter hiatus I was doing 6 in around 51 minutes.
damn you laziness!!!

it was a loop so there were times when I was running with it, and then times when it was right in my face. I think it was less about the wind and more about me not running on pavement in the past 4 weeks...
I checked out your plan for the half and I think it looks good, but what's with the drop off in the long runs a third of the way through? You go 7,7,8 then it drops down to 5, then back up to 9s? Looks strange, but again I'm no expert.

Stretch, whats your peak mileage in prep for your marathons?
I'm guessing I'll be at about 50 a few weeks before the IM.
It goes up to 75. This year, of the 16 weeks (not including the first and last week) the mileage goes from 55-75. I am using a program by Pfitz out of the legendary book "Advanced Marathoning"

Brought my cold weather running gear with me to NYC so I could run in central park tOmorrow morning. It appears that the foot of snow expected will keep me to the hotel treadmill.
