Drove up the marathon path.  We were going to only do 20 but I wanted to do Veyo hill  so we parked the car at a gas station in Veyo.  I felt strong.  I held back on running super fast down the hills.  I didn't want to be too sore to run next week.  I did push myself up  hill though.  As soon as I turned onto snow canyon parkway I started to fizzle out.  From about mile 17 on it was a struggle.  It was a nice morning.  Cool.  Lots of other runners on the course.  Ran about the first 4 miles in the dark.  The lights from the oncoming cars was starting to give me a headache.  Last big run before the marathon.  Glad to have it out of the way.

 

Avg pace:  8:08

Was on my feet all day friday helping at the school and running errands then stayed up to late.  My husband was gone for football so we had a girls night.  Didn't get to bed until around midnight.  Couldn't get up this morning.  Started running about 8.  It wasn't too bad outside.  Legs felt tired and sluggish.  Turned my music up and just pushed myself through.

My allergies have been killing me and I haven't been sleeping well.   I got up late so only had time for 6.25.  Felt very sluggish.  Sinus headache and sneezing all day.  

 Rode bike hard for an hour later in the evening and did weights.

I was really tired today.  I was on my feet all day until about 9 p.m. last night.  Red Mountain elementary had their fall carnival and I foolishly volunteered to help.  :-)  Was in the sun all afternoon helping set up then all evening supervising children.  Slept in until about 7:30.  About mile 5 had a really bad side ache and started thinking really negative thoughts about the marathon. 

I'm only going to think positive thoughts.  My brother and his family are coming on thursday night. He is going to run with us.  My mom is also coming.  I already have spagetti and sauce cooked in the freezer so I'm just going to pull it out on friday morning and just pop it in the microwave friday night.  Jamie has to do the stats at the Snow Canyon football game on friday.  It is there homecoming so we may go for a little bit.

Did an easy loop around my house.   I always hate this week before the marathon.  It seems as if my body aches more and I feel so ill prepared.

Had to force myself to stop running even though I thought I should do more.  Getting nervous.  My daughter is sick with a cold.  I have been very careful about washing my hands and drinking lots of liquids.  Hopefully I won't get sick also.
