4X400 meter repeats at 7:03 (8.5)  Felt hard but it was nice to get my legs moving fast.  Heidi joined me on the treadmill beside me.  She yelled at me and told me I couldn't say anything negative about my race from now on.  She is right so I am only going to think positive thoughts about running Boston.  I have put in the training good things will happen.

I leave for Boston in 45 minutes.  I have not decided if I want to take my lap top or not.  If I don't I will talk to you'all in 10 days.

Schedule called for just two miles.  I wanted to do more but decided to trust the schedule.  Ran along the Charles river.  I would run out a mile and then run back to my hubby.  I concentrated on my form and the run felt pretty good I ran three miles and then walked the last mile back to the hotel with my husband.

Splits: 8:30, 8:33, 8:46, 17:32 (did turn watch off at stop lights but still walking slow!)

Three easy miles on the hotel treadmill.  The last .25 miles I did at 3.0 incline just to feel heartbreak hillish.   It is raining so hard here I am glad it is not race day.  

James and I drove the course today.  I got a few picture but because of the rain I didn't want to get out of the car that much.  I am such a wimp!  There were guys working to get the race together at the start. It was so cold and rainy I felt so sorry for them.  I looked like they had so much work to do and all in the rain.
