For a training run today, I ran at marathon pace for the entire time. The only pain was in my right foot, which felt like it was breaking with a stress fracture.

My pace was consistently at least half a minute faster than last week. In doing so, I feel strong. Let's not talk too much, but suffice to say, I am on target with my training.

Training has been boring the past three weeks. By that, I mean that it has necessarily been turgid. But it has made me stronger.
