McMillan Custom Marathon Plan: Week 5 Day 6

Week 5, Day 6
Phase: Pre-Marathon
Workout: Long, Steady Run: 14 to 16 miles
Purpose: Time on your feet is more important than pace in a long, steady run. Run easy and run long.
Thankfully a much better run today after a few sub-standard performances over the last two or three days. Ended up running 16.5 miles at an average 7:57 per mile pace with no fatigue issues at all.

Another easy run tomorrow which should see my weekly mileage climb to the high 40s; not bad considering the 5k on Tuesday and a few shorter than average runs.
