Oh boy. One week til marathon day!
I'm kind of throwing up in my mouth, if you will. It's just really hard to believe race day is just a week away.
Today I completed my last long run with some running friends. We ran about eight miles at a relaxed and easy pace. The weather was perfect, it was nice and cool.
Physically, I'm feeling great. No aches or pains, but I was pretty tired this afternoon. Tomorrow morning I'm planning on running four or so because I skipped a four miler this week. The rest of the week will be very do-able. Total, I will run about seven miles before race day. Not bad!
Like I've said before, the taper is the fun part. It does mess with your brain, however. This week, I caught myself thinking...am I really ready for a MARATHON? I've hardly been running, but I think I felt like that because the miles have been dramatically shorter.
Stay tuned, as there will be musings about the impending race throughout the week. Maybe I'll throw in a weather report for next Sunday, too. If you're lucky. ; )
