Alison and I have been training for about 4 months now and this Sunday we will be among 7,000 other runners for the Shamrock Half Marathon in Virginia Beach.. that doesn’t even count the people who are signed up to run the full marathon… race time is 7:00am!
This week is usually the hardest for me because you are supposed to “taper” which means back off on your workouts so you will be fresh for race day… My long run this past weekend didn’t feel too long… I did 8 miles on Saturday and had been doing 10+ for the last several weeks…
But I am looking forward to a little road trip with a friend to visit a friend… we may finish together or at different times but we will all finish at the same place with a big celebration at the end… once we get started it will be over before we know it and with an early start time like that I may be asleep for the first 4 or 5 miles…
Happy Monday!
