cm 02 We ' re both adults ! We ' re two confused changelings who are just trying to figure out what we can do to be ourselves , right ? Why not together ? Why not experiment as a duo ? <| sep |> The issues are even better ! xD <| sep |> I could not agree more . Why does it take almost 6 months just to approve a license transfer ? <| sep |> Be easier to burn it down . Sorry for the incomplete post . 3 year old grabbed the phone out of my hand and hit post <| sep |> Might work , but don ' t ever sacrifice your long run day ! I ran my first marathon after ~ 6 months of dedicated training focused on the long run , and finished only 3 minutes behind my goal time . My training was one long run per week with 1 other run on average that was shorter , but not necessarily extremely fast . Add to that 18 cross training workouts per week this varied significantly depending on intramural season and whether I commuted by bike to work . I had gotten injured before trying to run too many times per week , and this worked for me . Adding another day of running may have improved my time , but it was nice to see a baseline of the minimum training my body needed . Good luck , don ' t worry too much , if you demonstrate you can build your long runs , take solace in the fact that you will at least be able to finish the race if you pace well and listen to your body .
