Today I am off to do my final long run. I am heading out shortly to do 12. The longest I have done this training time is 10. The 10 was my best run all year....but that was almost a month ago. I unfortunately haven't had the best past few weeks for running on the weekends! But I still have confidence I can own the half marathon.
This training has been different in my training from last year that I have trained 100% alone. I have tons of support and know others training too but all of my run have been alone. And I have loved it. I can concentrate on ME and not working on others pace or feeling like a slow slug when my friends leave me in their dust! I know many people like to do groups but I am realizing running for me is an I sport!

I am glad this is my last long one and after this I am going to concentrate on my workout plan...not just training plan. Until its time to train for the Flying Pig that is!

Drink a crystal lite wild strawberry energy. I have no idea if it is just named energy or is suppose to give you energy or what but I have to drink it or I am out of sorts!

Eat a Clif bar. Now truth is I am not eating one today because I had a nice carby lunch at the Cable Guys parents after church and I think I am okay. I am taking some extra Gu along with me in case I need some more nutrients. Lets hope for the best!

Take care of business. #2 kind of business. And sorry if that's not something you want to know about but its life! I work with body fluids on a daily basis so a little poo humor is the norm for me!
