Easy 8.5 miles today, but definitely an interesting run. I started out attempting to do a tempo run, but felt very tired and slow, and knowing that my race is a couple of days away, I knew that now is not my time to really deplete myself. I met up with one of the CU team runners, and we talked while we jogged. He told me about the program, the coaching and the type of miles they put in. The more I hear, the more I want in!!! Well, I have put a good amount of work and training in, so I feel confident that I can be part of the team. |
