The Last Run

Last night marked our last real run before the race. We ran the course- all 6 miles of it. The run was good but i haven't found a happy place for my new quick laces so they annoyed me the majority of the way- i tied them way too tight! Yes, I'm finally regaining feeling in my toes. It was also incredibly hot out so I stopped a few times from water and to get some pointers from the coaches- but my run was consistent and felt good overall. I paid attention to my time and realized i just hit the harlem hill at 30 minutes- I want to remember this so on race day i can push myself those last few miles to get through the hills and sail smoothly to the finish. I love running with TNT because no matter where I am there's someone around to talk to, to get encouragement from or to give it to. I really love this group and I'm actually sad the training is ending next week, I'd love to have another month... though, i'd like to have my social life back! We have a short run Saturday morning after our open water swim and then another quick run next wednesday- but last night was the last 6 miler until the race... feel the nerves?!!!
