Marine Corps Marathon Prep - Week 3 in REVIEW!!!!!!!!

So, yesterday was the official "Rest Day" that starts the new week - that makes today the WEEK IN REVIEW!!!!  According to Hal Higdon's "Novice 1" plan - this is what last week should have looked like:

Rest



3 m run



4 m run



3 m run



Rest



5



cross





As you know, I started off the week quite well - and did a great job following the training plan.  I must unfortunately report - that this did not remain the case.  Indeed, the third week (out of three) of my training plan makes the third week I did not follow it.

As you may notice, my "long run" of 5 miles never happened.  The Fingerlakes Wine Festival was at Watkins Glen International this weekend.  It's where 40,000 people show up to experience as many tastings of fine wines (and some not-so-fine ones to be honest) as they can manage before falling over!
