I have my second date with 26.2 on Sunday. <) I just got my period early, it's going to be too warm and maybe rainy, and I'm having all kinds of doubts...But at this point, I'm ready. Bring it!
cinco, I know you're going to kill it at your half!
I am doing a 12K in the morning. I am feeling a little sick (strep and severe colds are going around the office) so I am hoping I feel okay in the morning.
I'm supposed to run the Austin half on Sunday. I've had crazy headaches/migraines off and on since last Thursday. So I'm just going to have to wake up on race day and see how I feel. I'm feeling okay today but based on the recent pattern it seems like I get one every other day.
UPDATED: finished in 2:27.10. Slower than when I ran it back in 2012. Beyond annoyed at myself but was glad that my head wasn't hurting. The headache came after the race but I was able to dull it w/tylenol and a nap since Immitrex pretty much makes me useless.
We got to Myrtle Beach! Crazy windy and wet (although the rain stopped early) I finished a few minutes off my goal time, but all things considered, I'll take it! 5th in my AG, 1:37:32 chip time. The PR drought continues
My first 10k this morning! Not sure how great it will be...I ran 5 on Sunday and then 1 on Wednesday....the cold temps finally got the best of me. My half is one month from tomorrow!
Edit: done! 1:12, so right on my average pace, even with a stop to take off my long sleeve shirt and fix everything. Refueled with BBQ nachos...gotta love Memphis.
