Day 200

Start: 4:42am
Weather: Rainy and Cool
Time/Distance/Pace: 32:05 - 3 miles - 10:42
RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/87093557


Thoughts: A soaking wet run, by the end I was drenched. It feels so odd to be running such short distances before the marathon. I sort of feel like I'm under training and ruining my odds of completing. But, I'm following a proven method of training.

Day 198

Thoughts: Again my legs felt good but my left knee was pinching at the start of the run. There was an amazing sunrise so I changed up my regular route and ran down to South Beach to snap a picture of it. I ended up running further than I was supposed to, but I felt good so it didn't matter.

Day 197

Start: 5:03am
Weather: Clear and Cold
Time/Distance/Pace: 30:05 - 3.01 miles - 10:01
RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/86368353 


Thoughts: A nice quick run. It was surprisingly cold out, but the sun was coming up so it warmed up quickly. My left knee continued to pinch a little at the beginning of this run, but again loosened up and didn't bother me for long.


Total Training Distance: 527.53 miles

Day 195

Start: 11:47pm
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.


Total Training Distance: 524.52 miles

Day 193

Start: 5:05am
Weather: Clear and Cold
Time/Distance/Pace: 43:47 - 4.01 miles - 10:56
RunKeeper: http://runkeeper.com/user/cadebro/activity/85521622


Thoughts: My legs felt pretty good for this run. I've been worried about my left foot for a few weeks now, but as my mileage tapers off in preparation for the marathon my foot is getting a better recovery between runs. Hopefully it will be 100% by May 20th.
