Training 2010: SCM Training Commencement

I noticed i didn't have any posts on my trainings for all my races. Shall start a short 8 week training for the upcoming Standard Chartered Marathon. Will focus mainly on running reflection.

Currently i feel that i have decent mileage training from Desaru LDT and Newton 30km run.

Timing for Desaru LDT
Swim (<2km): style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 51, 255);">Timing for Newton Run
30km: 2:35
Pace: 5:10/km

My aim for marathon is 3:30. However, looking at my current performance and data from MC Milan running calculator which is 3:43. I start to wonder if i should be realistic with my timing. Furthermore, i have started work. Now only can commit for 1 swim session to maintain my form, 1 track session, 1 mid-dist ran and 1 long run over the weekend.

Below is the table for my training pace from MC Milan using 3:30 marathon pace.
