Today i ran ten miles of the race course with my friend/cousin Kory. I do have to say that the areas i thought would be hard are not too bad, but the area i thought would be a little easier was was hard. I am very glad i was able to run it with Kory, he helped me to pace the course and get a good feeling of where to run and when i need to take my sports beans. My over all pace was a 7:32 and that is only 18 seconds per mile slower than my PR. I feel with Gods help i can at least run my 7:14 per mile pace. There is only two weeks before the race and i am now getting excited for the race. Next week we will be running the same ten miles to help us get use to get more familiar with the course.   I am just praying there is no wind and the weather i warm. Well, thanks for reading and have a great Day!!!

You did awesome running the course Barry. Just remember to stay confident and trust in your training. The run was a little different than what I expected too. It was fun running with you.

Next week maybe on the last two mile we can practice doing it a little faster than your race pace. Because a week before a race you want to do a couple intensity miles.

Thanks Kory, I would like to run the last two miles faster. That is where i struggle the most is the end of the run. How are you feeling today, better?
