and marathon number three will be checked off the list.
Met up with P and D this morning for our second to last long run before Vegas. In shorts ... yes ... I ran in shorts ... in late November ... in Canada! Probably the last outing my shorts will have before they see Nevada.
We headed out for the loop of the park. The first three miles were tough. Tight tired legs, just as I remember the taper ... I'll feel worse before I feel better. I figured by mile 4 things would be warmed up and loosened out ... nope ... maybe by five ... hmmm ... not happening. Okay six, that's the magic number ... not so much. Finally around mile 7 I started to feel good. The rest of the run back was much better.
We got 14 miles done in the end, which I was really happy with. The last double digit run before the fireworks in LV!
I spent the afternoon doing laundry and attempting to pack, I'm off to Balitmore and Washington this week for a conference ... aka shopping on company time! Looking forward to running in a couple new cities and seeing some sites.
exciting! just around the corner now!
i'm sure you'll have a blast, as it seems many bloggers are going, too. how exciting!
