| PM - 10 miles total. 2 mile warm up then 4 miles at MRP and then 4 miles at 7:30 pace. Felt very good. Used the heartrate monitor for the first time in quite a while. Was able to keep the HR right in the 148-150 range at MRP - which gave me a boost of confidence. | | Add Comment |

| AM - easy to moderate pace 4.5 miles. Ran a couple at 7:15 pace just to keep from feeling so slow. Warm humid morning here - weather forecast for the race will be 25 degrees colder than this morning. Brrr. But good. | | Comments(2) |

AM - 5.0 miles - warm up run to the track then 4 x 400 @ 85 seconds w/ 1 min recovery then 2 x 200 @ 38-40, then cool down back home. Just a short workout to keep from "rusting" during the taper. Felt fine - did not push the pace very hard. Because there was no light at the track and the bezel on the FR 405 was acting up, I did not see any of the times until I went home to download. Just went by feel. Seemed to have locked in on the pace for each one.
Feeling a bit jittery (too much caffeine and carbs?) - two long stressful workdays ahead of me. Yesterday my traps and upper arms felt achy and fatigued - not so much today. Weird. Hate the things tapering seems to do to my body...

| Planned rest day. Quite nervy and jittery again today. Carb loading, hydrating and resting. Long work day yesterday, but got 7.5 hours of sleep last night. Two members of my family are sick -- gotta hold it off for a couple more days! | | Add Comment |

AM - in NYC - did an easy loosen up 2.5 mile run into Central Park and along the route to the finish line. Weather is great, I felt good and very excited in anticipation of running tomorrow.
Delaney had her high school cross country district meet in Sarasota this morning while I was en route to NY, and had a breakthrough race - she ran 21:36 for the 5k and was first on her team - that was represented nearly a one minute improvement on her personal best. She did not know at time of her text and call to me if the team finished high enough to advance to regionals - but I would have to say it was a great time for her to peak at what may have been her last race of this season. I was extremely pleased and proud and even inspired by her performance especially as a freshman and knowing how we ran together through the summer for her base training. | | Comments(1) |
