It was cold (24) and windy this morning.  I felt good after the long run on Sat.  Just made it an easy recover run.  I am going to try to have a couple of good runs this week then taper down for the marathon.

It was cool (32) and light snow this morning.  Luckily it was not windy.  Felt pretty good today and wanted to run some faster miles.  I picked it up after 3 miles and ran the next 3.5 at around 7:15 pace.  I was going to run longer at that pace but had some tightness in the hamstring and thought I should slow down and not risk injury again this close to the marathon.  It is definitely a problem at faster pace so will have to gradually build up and get my speed back.
