One Week

It's been a few weeks since an update and since my next half-marathon is a week from today, I thought I better post something. I've been enjoying the "warmer" weather that the groundhog predicted (can you pick up on the sarcasm?). Ok, there's been a nice day or two here and there, but it's still been pretty cold and windy. But I've managed to get my long runs in over the past few weeks and I'm feeling pretty good about next week.

Last week's 12-mile training run felt good and I ran at a decent pace. If I can keep up the pace for another mile, then I should be in good position to shave about 5 minutes off my time from last fall (1:59:56). My knee is still giving me a little pain on those long runs, but it has definitely improved.
