Getting the wind knocked out of you is the only way to

The pain that hurts the worse is the imagined pain. One of the most difficult arts of racing is learning to ignore the imagined pain and just live with the present pain (which is always bearable.) - Jeff

The bad news - and you ain't gonna like it - is that based on your training, she's probably offering a more realistic goal than you are. 4:30, yeah, probably. 4:15, maybe. 4:00? ... not without doubling your mileage and doing it pretty quick. And then there's the fact that its in August. Not trying to rain on your parade, but if you're going to fight with the spousal unit over it ... I'd want something I know I can do. I'd hate to see you put your foot down on this and then run a 4:30 anyway.
When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

And then, if I'm unfortunately right (or the heat is too much) and you end up closer to 4:30, you can blame it on her. Which is always good. Tell her you missed her and slowed down to be closer to her loveliness.
