This is my training schedule for the Austin Marathon. I put it together myself. I start on Monday, November 1st.
It's based on Arthur Lydiard's "build up" phase. It's full of variety and stimulates different layers of the aerobic energy systems every week. Constantly varying levels of effort and duration in the aerobic throughout the aerobic phase accomplishes far more than constant steady running alone. Livingstone, H.I.T., p. 87.

That's a good amount of running. I think it will be a good thing to change it up and try something different. I suppose you can't go wrong running 50 miles per week, so long as you don't over do it.
We'll see. I feel like I can handle it. I've spent a lot of time building up to this: Avg. of 30 miles/week for 16 weeks for Missoula and avg. of 40 miles/week for 12 weeks for Green Mountain.
