McMillan Custom Marathon Plan: Week 7 Day 4

Week 7, Day 4
Phase: Pre-Marathon
Workout: 40 to 50 minute Easy Run
Purpose: Build Endurance
Comments: Run 6 to 8 strides after this run

Too much stuff going on around the house to head outdoors, so sorry to say I had to run another treadmill workout this afternoon.

It wasn’t too boring a workout. As per McMillian’s plan, I included 8 x 30 seconds strides to mix things up and time passed rather quickly.

Tomorrow is *just* a 35 to 45 minute run, which should leave me very fresh for the Strider Mile on Saturday morning. I’m looking forward to my annual race on the track; it’s not often you get to mix it up over the classic mile distance and it’s usually a competitive, but fun event.

Distance: 6.5 miles
Time: 50:00
