Day 202
Start: 8:34am
Weather: Clear and Warm
Time/Distance/Pace: 1:14:34 - 7.08 miles - 10:32
RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/87538522
Thoughts: My last "long run" on training. It is coming to an end. I felt pretty good for this run. My left knee finally didn't bother me. Maybe reducing my distances leading up to the marathon will pay off. My left achilles still has some pressure, but at this point I'm pretty sure it will hold up. It's crazy to think I'll be running a marathon in just one week.

Weather: Clear and Warm
Time/Distance/Pace: 2:09:40 - 12.01 miles - 10:48
RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/86036068
Thoughts: I ran the first half of this run by myself and then two of my brothers joined me for the second half. Within the first mile my left knee started to bother me. It was pinching ever once in a while and one time it was painful enough to hinder my stride and caused me to yelp. After that it loosened up and I was fine. The best news for me was that my foot didn't hurt the entire run. It was nice to have a warm and sunny run to end such a rainy week.

Thoughts: I finally did it. And by "it" I don't mean complete my longest run of the training for a marathon. I mean that after the third or forth time that people saw me run by within a four hour period I finally got them to shake their head and mumble "is he fucking crazy?" Yeah, I'm fucking crazy. So why don't you go sit back down on the couch, your BP is rising.
So yeah, I made it through the 20 miler. That's supposed to mean that I'm ready for the marathon, but it is still hard to imagine running another 10k on top of that. The RunKeeper is off because my iPhone died before I completed the run, I guess that means it can't handle tracking runs that long and playing audiobooks. Good to know for the marathon in four weeks. I hurt more than I have before during a run, but it helped that friends of mine came out on to their porch to cheer me on each time I ran by their house.

Thoughts: This was a beautiful run around the Race Point bike path in Provincetown, Massachusetts. The family went on a mini-vacation and I was very excited to find this bike path for my run. It was a perfectly clear blue sky, very warm and pretty windy out, but despite its location the run was pretty sheltered from the wind. I only saw a few bike riders the entire run. The path went from sand dunes to beech forest to swamp and back to sand dunes making the run feel very exotic. I enjoyed the run so much that I continued to run until I made the full loop, even though it was beyond my 5 miles.

Time/Distance/Pace: 48:44 - 5 miles - 9:45
RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/82079669
Thoughts: A nice warm evening for a run. The highlight was an incredible, bright red sunset near the beginning. I had the normal pains in my left knee and achilles, but I ran this pretty quickly and they never got real painful. I'm slightly concerned that I ran this in the evening and that'll be running ten miles early the next morning, but my legs are getting pretty well conditioned to the distances. This is the longest week of the training, so as long as I make it through the week it is downhill from here.

Thoughts: This was an incredible run on the Rec Bike Path in Stowe, Vermont. I ran it with my brother and the weather was perfectly warm. I ran through downtown Stowe and then next to a river for three miles and then met up with my brother to do eleven miles on the bike path. The path twists between farms, through woods and across bridges spanning the river. The entire time there were spectacular views of Mansfield Mountain. My legs felt fine the entire time and when the run ended I still felt great.

RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/75950109
Thoughts: A long ass run, but I completed it. I hit the wall at about 13.5 miles and shuffled through the last 1.5 miles. It didn't help that I was doing the same 1.8 mile figure-8 loop because I had to check in on my son who was home alone. This was my first run with my Brooks Green Silence, and I loved them. I had to slow myself down after the first mile because I ran it in 9:30 without realizing I was going so fast. This was also the first run of the year that I did in shorts, it was nice and warm out and by the end of the run I had a sunburn on my forehead. Probably the first sunburn I've ever had in March in Maine.
