Hartford Marathon is Saturday (Kodos, are you still running the half?)

I feel like this summer training cycle has been my best yet. I feel like I have worked really hard and things have been paying off for me. I set new personal records for myself in the 5k, 5 mile, 10k and half marathon this time around, so am very optimistic about the marathon.

I think my plan is going to be to try to stick with the 4 hour pace group the entire way. Based on all of the random pace calculators out there, the estimate for me seems to be anywhere between 3:45 and 4:05 based on my other times, so sticking with that pace group should hopefully prevent me from taking off too quickly at the start, like I have every single other time.

My goals:

A goal: Sub-4 hour marathon (finally)
B goal: New Marathon PR (current PR for me is around 4:17)
C goal: Just finish!
