8.0 in 1:00:05 (7:31).  Stayed in Lehi this morning cause I knew I wouldn't be going far.  Ran up 300 W. until the 4 mile mark and then back home.  Felt good.

This is for my own benefit.  I wanted to get a feel for where I was going into this marathon on Monday compared to my last 3 marathons where I ran all out.  This shows my weekly mileage for the 12 weeks leading up to the marathon.  Each of these cycles had several races.  I don't know if this cycle is good enough to go under 3 hours, but I think I've given myself as good a chance as ever and if I run a smart race.

Jeff - looks like you're in a real good groove with your running and I think you should have a really good shot at the sub-3. Good luck with the race!

Thanks, Tom. Good long run for you today.
