NYC Marathon Training Week 4

I'm now into Week 5 of Marathon training, but first lets recap Week 4! Week 4 was okay. I did my long run in the middle of the week and I think it exhausted me for the rest of the week.  But that's okay because I felt really great on that run.  And truth be told, the long run is the most important run during training anyway.  Mileage was way down on Week 4 but I'm not too worried considering I'm already at 17.5 miles for this week and it's only Wednesday!  Here's the Recap:

(this is what a workout looks like when you have no time to complete it... the goal was to do 3X1200s but I had to go after work and I was in a rush to make my train! Oh well)

(I ran from 6:11am to 8:09am on the treadmill, watched tv, read magazines, listened to music, went through two bottles of water and 1/2 a pack of jellies but I finished my long run during the week!)

Route:  Outside my house
Mileage: 4
Total Time: 36:30

And yep, I didn't run Saturday or Sunday.  Planned to run Sunday but as you can tell, I was very busy on Sunday!  Oh well. This week will be better!
