Fabulous Four

Taper must be messing with my mind, because I showed up to my running group lacking anything and everything resembling confidence. But I'm persistent if nothing else, and wanted to make something happen today.

With the race 5 days out, I needed this run for my mind more than I needed it for my body. I was doubting myself before, but now I'm back to believing in myself. I can and I will start out easy and pick it up at the end.

I'm ready.

    Nice pick up on the second half, especially mile 4 at sub-10!

    Taper always messes with the head. That's normal. Stay calm. You are ready. Good luck!

    Well, persistence is the trademark moral of "the Tortoise and the Hare" so it seems fitting that you shouldput your head down and plow through what needed to be done! Great job!
