Sounds like with your summer of base miles, cross training and races, you could try to work in a 15, an 18, then a 20 miler before Philly. Possible, but take care not to get injured! There are some "to finish" a marathon sample schedules on the web (for example Hal Higdon's novice program http://www.halhigdon.com/marathon/novices.html) that you could look at for guidance. I will be running this event with a friend that is in a similar situation to you, (runs a races, but nothing longer than a half marathon as of this date), so he will see if he can up the long run mileage without injury in the next five weeks before committing to the full 26.2. Good Luck!
