  • We are now just 3 weeks out from the Boston Marathon. Today's run was the longest one of our entire training block, 20 miles. Today run had 3 major goals:
    1: To be the longest run of the Boston Buildup
    2: To stay relaxed in the beginning and eventually into a rhythm of 6 minute miles (or faster)
    3: Build confidence that we our in fact ready to run a 2:30 marathon at Boston

    I used to run a hilly 20 mile trial about a month before running a flat marathon course, I ran 20 mile trials of 2:09 and 2:01 and each time ran the flat course marathon in 2:33. The main advice I would offer is don't go out too fast, the race begins at 20 miles. Stop and drink every 5 miles with the last drink at 20. Nothing you drink after that will get into your system fast enough to make any difference. Good luck !!

    I'm a bit skeptical about a 2:30 marathon goal with that workout. However, you know your body best, and I'll be keeping an eye out for you to prove me wrong.

    That is a very good progressive increase the pace training run to prepare for a marathon.
    If you were doing a marathon like a flat course like Chicago you would be very prepared with that type of run.
    For Boston it might have been beneficial to include some downhills and rolling hills and increase the effort in the later miles.
    There is a good spots in Irvine you can do this. One spot you can start at the Turtle Rock Nature Center and run down RidgeLine along the freeway and do the quail trail trail behind the quail hill community center to Serrano Ridge to Bommer ridge Trail and then drop into Bommer Canyon and add some miles on the shady canyon trail If you wanted to add miles.
    Or you can do an out and back on the quail hill trail behind the quail hill community center and then and then up shady canyon trail back to the Turtle Rock Nature Center.
    There are plenty of other options in Irvine, laguna, laguna Niguel newport coast areas to do rolling hills runs to prepare for Boston. I know I need to get my legs used to the hills especially the downhills but was never as fast as you so who knows.

    one 20 miler for Boston prep on a flat course seems way under prepared. Not sure what your PR is or if you have run Boston at this pace before but 2:40 seems more possible if the down hills down destroy your legs. I be checking your result good luck
