Raining and 62 this morning. I just ran a couple of miles to get warmed up and to stretch out. I did a few strides to get the legs awake after a real easy week. Hard to tell how I am going to feel tomorrow based on the short run today. I am looking forward to giving it a go tomorrow.
Tomorrow's Half Marathon Plan: When I signed up for this race earlier in the year my thoughts were to set a new PR and make the top 500 in the race (if I run a PR I should make top 500). I haven't had a great buildup to this race so my thoughts might be foolish but I am sticking with my goals. I will plan on going out right at PR pace and then see if I can hold it. I figure the worst thing that can happen is I blow up and have to jog in. Based on the last month of training my expectations were dropping anyway so I don't have much to lose if it doesn't work out. I would however be more upset if I lower my goals and then half way through the race realize that I could have ran much faster if I would have been more aggressive. So I am excited to see what happens. |
