100 Days to My Marathon

Only six day to go until the marathon.  I reported that I did 5 miles walking on Saturday, then ran the final mile of practice.  Yesterday I did the PT exercises that I haven’t done for too long.  It was a good workout, but I felt the fact that I missed a few workouts.  Tonight I walked 4 miles, including the CA Incline, then ran 1.25 miles.  I was a little bit under a ten minute per mile pace.  It feels like I am just getting warmed up when I have to stop!  The knee feels pretty good, a little stiff, but I think that’s due to not running at all for so long.  It feels better than it did last summer when all these problems started!

I’m getting nervous about the race!  I am way better prepared than I was when I tried to walk the marathon 7 (?) years ago, but not as prepared as I was last year.  I’ll have to figure out how much I can run and how much I want to walk.  Whatever I do, I now I’ll have lots of support out there!
