Mostly easy - I did the last half mile at a 6:45 just to give myself some confidence that my legs work.  I'm trying hard not to get discouraged about the fact that I didn't take care of my legs well in the last couple of months.  But I've certainly learned my lesson.  I'm going to do the simple things like stretch and keep up on getting new shoes next time I train for a race so that all the hard work I do in putting the miles in doesn't get compromised.

On the positive side, I do feel excited to be doing this race tomorrow and enjoying the canyon on a nice cool morning.  My tempo runs and my repeat miles have been at the same pace or maybe faster than the last time I trained for a marathon.  I've run more months consecutively than I ever have before.  So those things will help me.  I'm also excited to watch my sister do her first 5k since high school.
