Marathon training update-week of bad weather and "The Storm"

Ran 16 miles yesterday for my long run, but that wasn't my most interesting run of the week. Thursday was my tempo run which was also the same day storms torn through the Chicago area. I had to squeeze the run in between the first and second wave of the storms. The tree that you see above changed my route to an area with smaller trees. I finished the run minutes before part two of the storm blasted through the northern suburbs.
