Mind

4 months 15 days to Flora London Marathon

Today's quote "Scientific testing can't determine how the mind will tolerate pain in a race. Sometimes, I say, Today I can die. - Gelindo Bordin"

Just how much faster can you run if you are prepared to die (run hard). I think about 1% - 5% faster. The best way to run faster is to train correctly so you don't get injured.

I ran five miles this morning. Tapering down for the two races this weekend. I actually went for my run at 7am this morning. Don't go that late. Usually a lot earlier. Nice to have 10 hours sleep last night. I wanted more!
