    My half is April 12. I feel the same way. Right now accuweather's long range guess is rain, 20+ mph winds and 50+ mph gusts. Beautiful.

     

    Gaaaah, that's terrible.  Just looked mine up.  Didn't know it would go out that far (4/25): Hi of 61, low of 43 and brilliant sunshine.  Smile

        Good morning.  After yesterday's short run, I am taking the next three days off before my HM.  My body is just telling me it needs it.  

         

        If you are up to it, a 30 minute jog the day before the race might just be the spoon that stirs the magic elixir.


        From the Internet.

          9.1 miles with 2x2 miles at GHMP - bumped both the volume and intensity down a bit this week since I did mile repeats on Tuesday. 8:20 average for the first 2, 8:19 for the second 2. My legs are tired, training for long races is hard. I want to go back to 5K training again.

                          Mornin', folks!

                           

                          Hi!  Feeling any better down there?

                           

                          No coffee Basya? What did I miss? Incidentally, I once went about 8 months or so without coffee for no other reason than to do something different. That is of course how I learned about caffeine withdrawal and migraine headaches, fuckin ow.

                           

                          Start hitting the checkbook of the late parents lily, if that doesn't learn their asses nothing will.

                           

                          Good luck with the quad Boon.

                           

                          Love the large wine glass Scotty! I could go for a swim.

                           

                          Enjoy the run Lori. You have been training your butt off!

                           

                          Sounds like a great idea CJ1. I love cereal more as an adult more than I did as a kid. lol

                           

                          Accuweather is great for long term fretting HK2, but not much more. Ironically, it actually is the least accurate. lol
