Hard to take an easy week when you are used to running at least 3-4 times. I have substituted a couple of brisk walks during work lunch breaks but nothing substitutes for a good 4-5 miler.
I did an easy 3.5 miler on Wednesday. As I approached home, I had that feeling like I could just keep on running for another 5 miles it was coming so effortlessly. I am hoping that is the case on Sunday.
Big weekend with my first ever Half Marathon and my longest run to date. I have done a few 10 milers and 12.5 miler during training but this will be the "long" one. I have no fear in finishing. My challenge will be to run it under 2 hours. I would prefer something in the 1:55-1:58 range. I think those are attainable goals for me first Half. Shamrock Luck of the Irish here I come. Rest today and tomorrow. Watching my kids do the Shamrock Final Mile tomorrow and lots of fun at the EXPO tonight.
Report on Monday .............hopefully. :)
