McMillan Custom Marathon Plan: Week 20 Day 5

Phase: Peak
Workout: 20 minute easy run
Looks like the conditions are going to be unseasonably warm for the race tomorrow. Current forecast is predicting 64°F at the start (8am) with thunderstorms and 16mph winds out of the south. The temperature will increase to 69°F by the time I’m hoping to finish. I must admit I’d be happier to have temps in the 40s and 50s, but oh well, it’s out of my hands and I’ll take whatever I’m up against.
Is the forecast enough to change my race plan? Definitely not; I’m still shooting for a new personal record (sub-2:51) and will stick to my goal pace of 6:29 per mile. Let’s see how long I can last…
Enjoy the weekend everyone!





Hi Steve
A little after 10:30 and the website still doesn’t have anything up because of the weather.
Hope all is going well as I imagine you are in that stage of the marathon that is all heart.
Best of luck.
