I can't believe the marathon is less than a month away. In fact, it's about 2.5 weeks away! Yikes! It's been a wonderful training adventure though. And right now, I'm on the down swing for miles... which is really nice. No more dauntingly big long runs... except for the actual race ;) Today I was able to run outside and I only had to do 3 miles... so Gaetan took the kids to the library and I got to run on the trails. I ended up doing 3.5 miles at a sub 8 minute mile pace! Holy cow! I haven't run that fast since high school cross country... I was pretty impressed with myself. I felt really good at the end too (despite the big hill) so I'm telling myself that I could've gone longer :).
It feels good to see the progress and all the hardwork paying off. Here is to a few more miles before the big day!
