10-30-10 Only 17 Days to Marathon

I had an early appointment this morning so I went out at 5:30am. It was chilly but I decided to brave the weather and wore only a jacket made of dri-fit material plus gloves in addition to leggings and a tank top. After a 10 minute warm up, I walked very fast for 30 minutes straight and then did a 10 minute cool down. This was the first time that I had not run during the middle part of this workout. As I mentioned in previous posts, since I am not going to be running any of the marathon, I thought it best to restrict the balance of training to walking only.
