Notes
The frustration is that I was planning for this to be a 40+ week; then realized that life isn't going to allow it. Sunday night ballroom showcase meant near-midnight bedtime. Tuesday night recital at Peru means near-midnight bedtime. Taper for State Farm race means possibly no run Friday. Possibly a very easy run.
Today, however, I had a beautiful run. I was determined to take it easy and get my relaxation on. First mile was easy, and it just got easier and faster as the run progressed. This is pretty much how I should run the longer races. PTT felt good. Gentle south wind kept me sufficiently cool. It was dark and pretty quiet. One other runner, a couple of walkers, couple of bikes.
