TODAY, DO A 95-MINUTE OVERDISTANCE (OD) RUN AT LEVEL 1 INTENSITY. Your long run will continue to increase to get you ready for the demands of running a marathon. You've noticed by now that your program uses time instead of distance. That's because time and intensity are a better measure of training stress. Don't worry if you're not running 26 miles. As long as you can run 60-70% of your planned event time you'll have no trouble completing the event. Remember your tempo speed bursts every 15 minutes.
