Open Question: Marathon coaches - how many miles should I do today? (past 4 week history attached)?

Posted by carposter  Published in News
Hi - I'm doing Grandma's Marathon on June 21 and am following Hal Higdon's Novice 2 schedule. It was going well, but I had a sore ankle tendon a few weeks ago and took almost a week off. It kind of threw a wrench in my mileage. Here's my weekend long run history in the past few weeks: 4/5 14 4/12 15 4/19 13.1 (half marathon race, tweaked tendon around mile 10, not painful, ran through it) 4/26 Took the week off, ran a 10K on 4/26 so 6.2 5/3 17.4 (felt fine) 5/10 18.75 During the week, I have three more runs totaling around 18 miles, so my weeks are around 35 miles. I think I need to dip today to around 12 or 13. My last long run, a 20 miler, is scheduled for 5/31 before a 3 week taper before the race on 6/21. Lots of numbers here, I know - but if you're a serious runner, I'm sure you can relate! Any advice on what I should do today and the next couple of weekends? (the ankle is 100% fine now)
