Ran in Southport. 25 MPH sustained wind. Terrible sidewalks/roads to run on. Tried to make the most of it. Progressive splits. 8:45 to 7:23. Just a nice steady faster each mile run... wind gave resistance.

2 Weeks until my 1st marathon since 2013. 1st time I am running pain free this close to a marathon since 2010. Extememly thankful. 

I am trying not to get hung up on anything and just enjoy it, but dang it I like to hit goals. Anyway, 38º and a very cold brisk wind. 2 Mile warm up. 12.1 consecuative miles faster than BQMP- 7:50, 7:29, 7:42, 7:35, 7:41, 7:33, 7:47, 7:45, 7:42, 7:40, 7:47, 7:13.   Considering the hills and wind I am good with the effort and resutls.
