and I think I'm OK. I've read that all you need to be able to do is a 10K. I hope thats true! I'm only a little concerned about my last leg in the race, which is the final leg. I'm stoked about the whole last leg part, but it's about 6 miles, so I'm a little worried about fatigue levels at that point. The reality is I'd probably at worse be 30 to 45 seconds a mile slower than the time I turned in and frankly it probably won't matter a lot if we make it that far!
I did 8 miles yesterday and it felt like the first time I ever did 8 miles. I have to admit that's a little frustrating. I keep telling myself it will all be worth it in the end even if it is really hard to see right now.
As an aside, I hope I'm not jumping the gun, but I think the worst of our winter is probably over and I'm glad to see it go. These blood thinners really make me feel chilled all the damn time. The next 4 months are some of the best here, so I'm looking forward to it!
