Region 2-4A 2012

This week is a step-back week in my training, and it’s coming at the perfect time.  Not only have I been icing my knee all weekend, I think my mind needs a little rest from the long run before I up the mileage next week.

I have no major goals during the week because I think that the 14-mile run that I have planned for Saturday is big enough.  I have never run more than a half-marathon at one time, so I’m already feeling the anxiety.  My brother, Ryan, an ultra-marathoner and IronMan, put it in perspective for me: “It’s one extra mile, so think of it as 8 more minutes.  It’s just 8 minutes.”
