发帖数: 11 | 1 跑完了马拉松昨天晚上翻身都费事，现在走路都艰难，可惜今天的好天气了。打个报告吧。
早就听说Richmond Marathon is the Friendliest Marathon,于是这个马拉松也就上了我的To-Run 单子 。周五下午启程，一路省去。可能因为是第二个马拉松，感觉没有上次紧张，也可能是最近一直很累,晚上睡得很好。睡前特意把一大瓶Gatorade 放在枕边的柜子上，半夜起夜时还喝了好几口。晚饭吃了也喝了（水）很多。晚上睡前小插曲。10点我也经换了睡衣打算呼呼了，火警警报突然响了。当时的的第一个反应就是我打开的暖气散发着糊味，我居然还给前台打电话，想告诉他们只是暖气的味道，结果还没等我说话，前台命令我离开房间。匆忙间套了件外衣下楼。到了楼外，才发现原来大家都出来了。整个楼里好像住的都是跑步的人，有穿着运动短裤的，有手里握着Gatorade的，也有穿着睡衣的。好嘛，比赛前大家先楼前集合见个面。天上还飘着小雨，但愿明天好天。
尽管我上了3个闹表，还是一个也没用上，提前10分钟被隔壁的闹表叫醒了。也好早点起来早吃饭。早餐一个bagel,一个鸡蛋，一个yogurt,和小杯咖啡，一 |

than expected. 不过没有走，已经很幸运了。
昨天到long island, 下了train之后拖着行李走了3,4 miles才check in. 整天没敢吃
正餐，怕比赛时闹肚子，只吃了点granola, salad. 现在想来这可能是准备中的最大错
误。晚上睡了5个小时左右，早上5点钟起床，7点到比赛地点。觉得肚子饿，没能量，
不大对头，于是吃了一个carb gel. 见到了著名牛人fatboyhog, hehe. 还很巧的碰到
了一个在boston的同事，他这次BQ了。起跑的时候fatboyhog在前面冲出。我只想留着
腿，没热身，以8:30 pace开始。
Mile 1: 8:16, 热身状态，但已经感觉没有平时long run时能量充足，后悔昨天没吃好

发帖数: 2228 | 4 今年三月，一个朋友告诉我要参加6月21日在Duluth举办的Marathon，我当时也动了心
。本来想与他一起跑，由于错过报名时间没能如愿。但是当时已下定决心今年一定跑一
个全马。考虑到训练时间，气温，地点等因素，最后报了我现在所在地市Minneapolis
在10月5日举办的Twin Cities Marathon。

报名时的基本状况是：刚开始恢复健身，由于天气冷，只在跑步机上跑，一周跑2-3次
，每次一个小时，速度刚开始只有4Mile/Hour，后来逐渐提高到5Mile/小时，由于自己
训练，很随意，训练时间没有保证，提高也不是很明显。
到了六月中旬，天气转暧，可以跑室外了，距离比赛时间越来越近，觉得有必需系统训
练一下，也给自己一点压力。于是开始与Life Time Running Club一起训练，计划完全
是教练制定的，大家一起跑。整个计划从6月16日到比赛前，共17周，每周Group训练三
次，周一，周三下班以后跑，短距离5-12Mile渐进，周六上午，长距离10-22Mile渐进
；周二，周四自己跑一个5-6Mile，因为没有时间，个人训练我基本都Ski |

发帖数: 74 | 8 写Race Report比跑步难多了, 但为了Boston Marathon, 要特别纪念一下.
这是个人自10/29/2005起第34场马拉松赛, 称不上什么marathon maniac, 原因其实是
”懒”!!!
一个人训练总是提不起劲, Interval Run 跑的不够快, Long Run 跑的不够长, Tempo
Run 都被我跑成Easy Run了, 唯有比赛自己才会全力以赴,, 所以久而久之就把比赛当
练习, 5K 当作练Interval, 10K & Half 练 Tempo, Full练 Long Run正好. 只要离家
车程不要太远的比赛, 从5K至马拉松我几乎都会参加, 最忙的是去年10/5 □ 12/7 (秋
天是赛事旺季). 跑了6场全马, 2场半程, 一场10K & 5K, 不是自己多疯狂, 而是比赛
日期都是别人决定的呀
至於身体恢复, 一般全程比赛四五天后双腿感觉可以正常练跑了, 不过我觉得三个礼拜
跑一次全程是最理想, 可以冲PR, 也正好呼应Long Run的间隔. 很幸运一直没受什么伤
, 只有08年一月比赛完后隔天左脚掌底开始酸痛, 跛脚了 |

汇报一下mile splits和比赛过程：
比赛前三周Mileage分别是51, 51, 41. 比赛这一周周二到周四连续三天easy run, 6.5, 4.2, 3.6 miles，以为感冒恢复了，后来还是有点症状，minor sore throat, 歇了两天。比赛前routine，3小时前起床，吃早餐，就是4片面包，赛前两小时到一个半小时喝足水，然后上厕所。站在3：30 pacer后面，等比赛开始。因为不知道course到底有多少坡，期望值不高，打算放松地跑前一半。第一次穿了个垃圾袋，很不错。
mile 1： 8：37，第一迈是个长的上坡，跑得比较耐心，热身。因为在人群里站了好长时间，出发时腿都发麻了。而且等比赛开始的时候要pee，没法上厕所，第一迈时直接在裤子里解决了。幸好开始下雨，所以区别不大，呵呵。一迈后把身上的垃圾袋 |

Of course, it may be a more reasonable comparison to consider the 5K
pace. Wanjiru's 5K pace is about 4:15. And yet he could run the first
mile of a marathon in 4:35, so 20 seconds per mile slower. My 5K pace is
6:02. If I add 30 seconds to that, 6:32, would be a moderate tempo pace
for me, and there is no way I would ever do that in a marathon, at my
current condition. |

One interesting thing they were pointing out is that the traditional US
runners' approach to the marathon is
similar to 10K training, just adding the long runs. Then there are the
people who are not so fast at the 10K
distance but are very fast in the marathon, and they do things like 4x5K,
2x6 mi, very long tempo runs in their

有点担心天气，周五有大风，但是最后周六风还可以，但是温度有点高，
开始就60多，可能跑完70多。

作为第六个马拉松，相比也算比较平淡了。但是因为是第一个除了chicago marathon以外

人虽然少些，但是也不觉得寂寞，比赛组织也不错。
开始就按目标pace.走走跑跑，觉得保守些，能晚些抽筋。最好能不抽筋.hehe.

runners.

last 6 at goal marathon pace. If your goal is BQ at Berlin, doing a full
marathon at the pace you did is too aggressive, and there is more to lose
than to gain at this point. The cramping is a blessing in disguise, because
it prevents you from pushing too hard at the end, and you will be able to
recover faster now. How many gels did you take? I suggest hydrating with two

发帖数: 4931 | 46 That is true, because your pace will fluctuate during the course of the
marathon. But just because you run 10
seconds per mile faster in the long run doesn't mean that you will race 10
seconds per mile faster in the
marathon. Most of us want to train as hard as we could, but there is the question of whether the body can
absorb rather than be damaged by the workout. |

发帖数: 4931 | 47 Born to Run mentioned that in the early 80s, a single amateur running club
in Boston had 6 sub 2:12
marathoners. How many active sub 2:12 marathoners are there in the US today?
Ryan, Meb, Sell, Ritzenhein,
anyone else? |

I guess I'm a bit too rational, but I want to save my ankles and knees for
years of running, at least till I'm well into 70s. I worry running too
long and hard would shorten my running life. When my doctor heard me
running, his comment was "half marathon probably has the best risk/benefit
ratio", maybe he is right. |

发帖数: 4931 | 49 5K is a common distance run by army soldiers, and I wouldn't be surprised if
many of them can go sub 20.
However, I'm not sure what percentage of Chinese or American soldiers can
run say a sub 3:20 marathon
(which arguably requires less athleticism than a sub 20 5K). If they don't
train specifically for the marathon, I
bet very few could do it. |

发帖数: 4931 | 50 when I ran my first marathon six years ago, BQ pace sounded ridiculous to me
. It would wear me out running
just two miles at that pace. I couldn't imagine what it would take to run a
marathon at that pace. It turned out
that all it took was six years of running. |
