Training log

I just signed up for the Colfax Marathon here in Denver, it was kind of pricey($90) they better have a cool T-shirt.
For my first trainng run off of the treadmill I did three laps at Cheeseman Park, including the .4 miles from my house to the park and the .4 miles back to my house, the entire run was exactly five miles. At least that is what my Garmin Forerunner 205 tells me. It took me just under 49 minutes. If I really hope to break 4 hours for the marathon I am going to have to pick-up the pace.

If anyone comes acroos this post and has any training tips let me know, I am pretty sure the Garmin will be invaluable as I had no idea how slow I was running until I saw the near ten minute per mile average right there on my wrist.
