My legs were nice and peppy this morning. I think I will be ready to roll on Saturday. I'm excited to be there two days before the race. That means I can rest up and get myself in race mode instead of dealing with the chaos of everyday life with two kids. It will be nice to be able to really focus. I'm also excited for quality time with my mom . . . even if I do have to share her with Hot Scott (the boyfriend).
I ran a 3.5 mile run on the river trail over to Millrace Park. Then, I ran 10 x 1 minute on/1 minute off. My original plan was 15, but my achilles tendon was not liking the lightweight trainers that I was wearing. (I couldn't find my running shoes this morning. I wonder if Lily has been wearing them again.) 10 seemed to be plenty. To finish, I ran a mile and a half home from the park.
