Hi

Too me it seem like you did mostly a very nice 10K training from October to January. Mile repeats @6:00 is 5K/10K peaking training. I think that also shows from your 5K time and even your halfmarathon time which was good. The tempo's where also hard 10K training pace (though 7:00/mile is a nice marathon workout. I personally would in the last 10 weeks run up to an hour tempo in Marathon pace, alternating with 5-6 Mile repeats at Halfmarathon pace. Your "speedworkout" should be only strides after some 10k pace repeats. I wouldn't up the pace on easy runs either, unless they come naturally. Looks to me you are on getting your fitness right, just need to get the marathon specific training in place next time and you will run 3:05.
