Hey there - happened to come over here from TomK's blog. Do you ever do any repeats or LT work? I see a lot of faster base miles into MGP but not much else. Just curious.

Hey Derhammer, thanks for stopping by! As far as running, I'm pretty inexperienced. I'm assuming LT is lactate threshold, but I really don't know what it is all about. Most of my runs are of the progression variety and look very similar day in & day out. If you have any suggested workouts or paces that I should be running based off of my times, it would be awesome!

Hey Derhammer..... I think I just answered one of my questions about LT pace. I saw the comment you made to Matt Schreiber with the link to the McMillan calculator. Good stuff. Now that I know what my lactate threshold is based off of my recent half marathon time, I just need some advice on workouts :)

Hi - I say it all depends on your goal race and what you want to accomplish and then work backwards from there. What do you have in future plans?

I would love to qualify for Boston 2015. I'll be 40 in January and it gets a bit easier for me obviously as I hit the 40-49 age group. I just need to find a marathon and then get the proper training underway.

You would probably want to find a marathon in the spring and have a back up one as well in case something goes terribly wrong. All the fast ones up where you live - Mohak-Hudson - Wineglass - are in October. So those won't work if your goal is 2015.
I keep looking at the 5k PR of yours - is that recent - because with that time you should be able to run sub 3:10 marathon no problem - maybe sub 3:05 - with the right marathon specific training.
