23 miles [22 with AP 8:18 on the JRP (18 of those miles with JohnnyV -- SO NICE TO HAVE COMPANY), then one with Sophia :) at 8:57]

Plan was just to run comfortably today. I was worried about how this run would go because I felt exhausted yesterday and this is my highest running mileage week ever. I was very cautious and it was rather nice feeling like I was holding back some most of the run. I did hit it hard the last 6 miles (it was a confidence booster to see that I still had gas in the tank). :)

Got home and Sophers was wanting to run one mile. I thought a good 10:30 - 11:00 pace would have been a perfect cool down after hitting my previous 6 miles hard. NOPE ... she had a sub 9 in mind. There is something very freeing about watching her run. SO RELAXED, SO NATURAL. I love it ... I love her!!! :) :) :)

Slick, Mike and Lily~

Thank you so much for the confidence boosting words!!! Boston should be a lot of fun! Now if I could only figure out a way to stomach a snickers during the last handful of miles during the race like you, Lily. Now that would be something special!!! :) :) :)

Thanks again guys! :)

Snickers mini's! They are small, just pack like 3, and chew one or 2 around mile 18-19. I swear it helped me Teena. ha ha. It sounds funny but I swear....
