I've always thought that the actual marathon was being able to stay with training for so long and the reward was getting to run the actual marathon distance. I'm running my 3rd marathon along with my boyfriend (running his 1st!) this weekend at the Walt Disney World Marathon. It's been a joy to see him get through all the training. Good luck and I can't wait to follow your journey!

I just found the RW one by chance- just did a search for sub 2 hour plan and found that. I did the same this year and found this one! I like the variety of speed work and all the marathon pace workouts (especially during long runs!) so I thought it would work well :) See you at the races!Gretchen Braunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07790068777611696356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-298679531196459259.post-24514297336310100042016-01-07T17:40:15.632-08:002016-01-07T17:40:15.632-08:00Thanks Brie!
