Day 543 Maine Marathon
[Yesterday's run] Running Streak Day 543 via 26.2 miles - via the - Maine Marathon in Portland, Maine. I had pretty loft goals for this double marathon weekend. As I got rolling for this one I could not get past how beat-up my body felt. I was just a bit off my pace for the 1st 13 miles and was not able to find the juice in the legs to get on my goal pace. About 15 miles in it was apparent to me that a sub-4 marathon was not going to happen so I started walking the climbs and adjusted my mind to logging this one as a marathon completion and training run. With 1.2 miles to go it looked like I could get in under 4 hours and 30 minutes so I totally started booking it to the finish. Missed that by 10 seconds. I believe I am done with these double marathon weekends - the body fights against the second day being enjoyable.
