re: Official Running Log/Marathon Training Thread

I think I figured out my eight week plan leading into July and the weekend of the Fourth:

Static:

Monday - 6 easy
Tuesday - 6 easy
Wednesday - 4 mile tempo (mile 1 at easy pace, miles 2 and 3 at fast pace (sub 8:00/mi), mile 4 at easy pace)

Variable:

Thursdays
Weeks 1 - 2 - 8 x 200m intervals with 2 minutes rest at a slow pace in between
Weeks 2 - 4 - 10x200m intervals with 2 minutes rest at a slow pace in between
Weeks 5 - 6 - 6x400m intervals with 2 minutes rest at a slow pace in between
Weeks 7 - 8 - 8x400m intervals with 2 minutes rest at a slow pace in between

Saturdays
Weeks 1 - 4 - 9 miles below race pace
Weeks 5 - 8 - 10 miles below race pace
