6 weeks into marathon training

Leslie and I are 6 weeks into training for our first marathon (my first road race!).  We are following the 30 week training program from http://www.halhigdon.com/training/51143/Marathon-Novice-Supreme-Training-Program.

So far so good. my best mile pace is 6:37 in a 1.5 mile run which was way better than any other run I had done. I had just flown into Boston from Colorado so maybe it was the elevation change??

However my 2 and 3 mile runs were at a 7:20 pace and an 8 minute pace respectively so maybe it was just since it was shorter.

I've been a little off track this week because of a cold. I'm going out now for my first run (3 miles) since Wednesday (11/5)...3 days off...not terrible.

tomorrow will be a rest day and then it will be back on track to the normal week 6 schedule!
