The abyss between my fantasy world and reality is closed. This 15-mile-a-week training program might allow me to break six hours Sunday in the Little Rock Marathon, but that's the extent of my hope — might. Probably it won't, though.
Nothing I can do in the next five days figures to hearten or encourage me, and so I must shoulder the burden of my sad state of fitness and psychologically prepare to slog along. I slogged tonight as practice, running and walking the Park Hill Loop in 1:05:52, with mile splits of 12:42, 13:30, 12:32, 14:14, and 12:54.
