May want to add a couple of pace miles at the end of your long runs later on, but for now this seems perfect!

For me, a similar plan to what you are doing has worked best -- higher mileage, more easy miles, and not so much "leaving my race" on my training run. I tend to get overconfident and start hauling ass on every run, just because I can, and then hurt myself. <br /><br />I think the higher mileage/easier running plan is a solid one. Good luck!Jacquelinehttp://jackandviv.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-976919865429314945.post-66754785229474053742011-03-01T10:00:06.883-08:002011-03-01T10:00:06.883-08:00Your training plan looks great!

I think I have the same problem with over-training myself. <br /><br />I usually loosely base my marathon plan from Hal Higdon's, making my long runs longer so I can run more than just a couple 20's. My most recent plan is following HH's Novice 2 for the short and mid length runs and then alternating 12-16-20 each week for until March 7. And I think it's too much for me, so I've scaled it back a little bit by slowing my runs down a little. <br /><br />Then I go 12-20-12-20 until I taper for the race. I have a tune-up half marathon this upcoming weekend, so we'll know for sure if I'm over-trained or not. :)Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01212228308225991239noreply@blogger.com
