Beginning the new cycle

Historic Half was, technically, the beginning of my newest training cycle, which will finish up with running the Erie Marathon. While I was mildly annoyed that the 10k and 5k time trials that were supposed to kick off the cycle just weren't happening (my legs were just too tired to deal with the speed I was supposed to do), all of the other workouts so far have been spot-on. Granted, it's just a week in, but still, pleased that I'm managing in.

I need to figure out a few other things early on so that I can achieve and maintain a low weight just before the race. While things are trending properly at the moment, we'll see...

3:15 (BQ-5) or better is the goal. Hopefully the pacing team will add on a 3:15 pacer this year, now that it is a BQ time, once again. I would *much* rather rely on someone else to pace me to my desired time than to have to do it for myself when it's on the speedy end of things.
