September 25 to October 1 Training

Monday: 3 miles (9:27), 3 miles (9:53).  Lunch time run on the treadmill, followed by an easy Brixx run.
Tuesday: 3 miles (9:31).  I was traveling today, so only a 3 mile treadmill run.
Wednesday: 3 miles (9:31), 3 miles (9:31).  Two treadmill runs at the hotel, while out of town.
Thursday: 10 miles (8:47).  A solid 10 mile run starting at the Hendersonville Library and running to Drakes Creek Park and back.  This should be close to marathon pace in Chicago if everything goes as planned.
Friday: 3 miles (9:31).  I was going to run 5 miles, but right leg felt a little sore.
Saturday: 12 miles (8:30).  The plan was a 2 mile warmup with 10 x (1/2 @ 8:45 + 1/2 @ 8:25).  I got into a good rhythm, despite waiting until 10:20 to start with temps already at 66 and it was 72 when I finished.  But that looks to be the temperatures in Chicago, at least for the second half.
Sunday: 3 miles (10:12).  Very easy run from Starbucks with the 6 AM group.  I may add a few miles later this afternoon.

Total Miles: 43 miles.  A reduced volume week with the Chicago Marathon coming up on October 8th.
