Since my last post I've lots have happened. Currently I am following a Strava Marathon 12 week plan. This plan will conclude with the Rockport Triple threat ~17mi. 

I'll continue a modified plan to prepare for the Groton Trail Marathon a month later. 

One concern is the ability keep food down before, during, and after a long run. When I did the half marathon, I didn't bother with food. I had a few sips of water and that was it. I was certainly feeling out of gas by the end. I'm trying to avoid that this year.

This morning I had half a smoothie and some water and had no problems. As for the run itself, I had a backpack with lunch and clothes for work. It felt pretty slow and somewhere around 20 minutes I felt like I was starting to pick up some steam, instead of losing it.

Today was meant to be a 30-40 min easy run. Thursday is farklets, I need to figure out how to do that without an app telling me when to start and stop.
