4 solo miles at lunch. (Jo and Eric ran to the track this morning and got drenched...I wimped out) Taking it easy this week. I leave Thursday for CO. I'm a little nervous about my BP being so high lately. What's up? I'm a runner with a resting heart rate of 38. My cholesterol is fine. Maybe it's stress? The long weekend away from work and house chores, might be just the thing I need. I spent a little time checking out the Steamboat Marathon webpage today. Getting psyched up for the trip. I like the course profile, though there seems to be a bit of an uphill toward the end. I'll save some energy for that. I have no idea what to shoot for on race day...it all depends on how I feel, the weather, and the effect of the altitude on me. No real expectations or pressure. Going to have fun! |
