PM- 4 running miles, 1 very fast walking mile (practice for RR), then 3 cross train.  I can't believe my race is almost here- I've quite literally been planning on this race for 18+ months, and I'm already nervous.

You'll do awesome. I look forward to the report.

I had better practice my pacing. I had better bring a paperback joke book or something. Maybe I can just plug in my Ipod and sing to you...

If you do that, I'll just turn MY ipod up! You could always tell me lovely stories about your colonoscopy!

That is more information then we needed to know.

You'll do very well - just let it all happen!

Yea, we got to get the nerves calmed. I was a wreck before my first several 100s. We'll get you laughing. Just get a good night's sleep that Thursday night before flying down.
