May Training Wrap

The month of May and the very beginning of June served as a mini-base period of training for the Chicago Marathon on 10/10/10. It was the second rainiest May ever recorded in Portland. Almost all of my runs were done at a relaxed pace. The last week culminated with a 104 mile effort. The very last run was a 19 miler with Stan that included several sessions of Marathon and Tempo pace around Duniway track and on Terwilliger Hill.

The beginning of phase two has been marred with a shin injury that I'm monitoring closely.
