Reset of Day 1

Well, here we go again.  Started my training over again.  But only because I couldn't run the 9 miles over the weekend because of the assembly.

I was so surprised that last week I wasn't as sore as I thought I would be, that I decided to push myself a bit harder now.  I was expecting to be walking with a limp or my legs feeling like mush.  I have to admit that I didn't push myself as hard as I could have.  So taken it up a notch.

Ran 3 miles at a speed of 6.6 on the treadmill which put me at 9.13 min per mile.  So if I can run that pace for 26.2 miles, it comes to 239.206 min.  9.13 X 26.2 = 239.206
Now if I divide  239.206 by 60 min in a hour.  I get 3.986766  239.206 / 60 = 3.986766666666666667

Which means if I'm able able to keep this speed and pace, then I should be able to finish a marathon in under 4 hrs.  Just enough to beat my brother.  Now I have my goal.

It's ON!!!!!
