15 - total week will be ~40


With the disclaimer that I've never run a marathon: 15 miles at MP 3 weeks out seems like a little much. You'd expect someone to race a half a month out to test the goal pace, so 15 at goal MP might be overcooking it a little. I'll let Pedro or ks weigh in because I'm admittedly inexperienced with the longer stuff (giggity) but you don't want to mess up your training block right at the end

Technically it will be 15 at MP 15 days out. Now that I write that out it seems like a bad idea.

My regular plan has a fairly regular 6m intervals (actually 4M on the workout portion) and 9 miles on the third day MP which will put me 17 days out and less milage. ks_nola had mentioned me going out and knocking out 15 @ MP to give me confidence a boost so I thought that might be good :shrug: - maybe it is a bit too soon to the race though
