I’m back. Super sore but I did it. I officially broke 3 hrs in the marathon. Ran a nice 6:46 pace for 26 miles and ran 2:58:36. I ran under 3 last year on the same course but wasn’t official race so it didn’t go in the record books. Now it does.
All this reminded me of something a coach in Kenya told me. He said. “you will never be as good as you could be because you have too many things to do. Americans always say they are doing the best they can and what they really mean, they are giving all they are willing to give at that time”. At first I took this as a negative but then realized he was right. We have work, kids, friends, hobbies, etc. Kenyan runners have running. It is what they have to do well to eat. Its ALL they do. It is the center of everything. The world wonders why the greatest runners come from Iten Kenya. They research the food. Do tests on their body. What they don’t realize is they live at 7000 feet and put every ounce of their being into running. You can’t compete with hungry.
So when I set out to break 3 hrs I thought. Can I give enough to training to break 3? At first I didn’t think I could make the time, lose the weight, create the base and add the speed. It takes over a year to build the base and then some to add the speed. It takes 12-15 hrs a week. At 52 and with several businesses, I didn’t see how it would be possible. But then the vaporfly shoes came out and immediately took off 3 minutes to my marathon time. Now I was only 4 minutes off off breaking 3 hours (I had run 3:07) and realized I could get that. Seven minutes no. 4 yes. If I could get a coach to make me responsible for my training and provide feedback I could do it. I believe if I was retired and only ran for a living I could get down to 2:54 2:53 but I’m not and 5 minutes to give up my paychecks isn’t worth it. I know I am not be as good as I could possibly be. Only as good as the time I give to it. I’m not giving it my all. I’m giving it what I am willing to give. Which is a lot and is good enough for me
