With my lack of long training runs over the last 5 or 6 weeks, I can’t see myself getting close to my PR set at Shamrock last month, but I do hope to break last year’s Frederick time by a minute or two. Ok, here goes - this year I’m looking to average 6:46 per mile pace, which would give me a finish time of just over 2 hours 57 minutes. I think the key to success will be to settle in to a nice early pace and try to hold it for as long as possible. I remember last year some of the early mile markers were slightly off and it took a while to figure out what pace I was actually running.

I’ve never been able to finish a marathon that strongly before and I must credit that to the great range of products available at E-Caps.com. However, what turned out to be most surprising was how well I felt the day after the race, and the day after the day after, which is typically the day I feel the most beaten up! I’m sure Recoverite is the main reason for the fast recovery. RECOVERITE contains only maltodextrin, a complex carbohydrate with a high glycemic index, to ensure rapid metabolism. Unlike most recovery products that contain simple sugars, maltodextrin provides a large volume of easily digested and rapidly assimilated carbohydrate, vital for preventing stomach distress and promoting full, efficient restoration of muscle glycogen.
