summary of training - atlanta marathon

i was never training specifically for the atlanta marathon, but decided to throw it in my training plan to "ensure i got in another 20+ mile run for the goofy challenge" (jan '09). although it is just supposed to be a training run, i'm still aiming to run at goal pace. (plus i have to run fast in order to make it home in time for thanksgiving dinner!)
