Qualifying for Boston at the Portland Marathon this Fall will be very very difficult for me. I am a realist for the most part. I always try my best but I don’t have pie in the sky expectations. My performance is usually very close to what I think it will be. Right now I am struggling trying to keep on my interval times, and of course the speedier long run. The reality is… I may be biting off more than I can chew right now. I do know that someday I WILL qualify, but will it be in Portland this Fall? I will give it my all. I will stay on pace until I can’t run anymore. Hopefully the finish line will come first.
A realistic goal for Portland is perhaps a 7:59 to 8:15 pace though. Reality sucks.
