Sorry I missed you in the "kudos" on the weekly email. I was so tired when I put that thing together this week, I missed a bunch of people and races.

It is wise to enter a race as a training run during the preparation of the "main event". A good pace and a good strategy, congrats. You wrote: "reminding myself to slow down". I did the same last sunday but after 1 km I realized to be the last ... and I had to change my strategy: what a terrible mistake! A very good choice.

I like the way you are determined to run smart and do what's right for you...it just makes sense! By the way, it's taken me 7 years to realize that the long run is designed to get you time on your feet and strenth...not speed. There are other training days for that. I guess I'm just one of the not-so-sharp kids...fortunately you are not!! You sound like you're enjoying your training!! P.S. I was so happy to see that you're still blogging. You have always been one of the most inspiring bloggers I know, on so many levels! Thanks! Yes, Hal seems to be pretty smart, it’s good to listen to the smart guys(and gals)!

I'm pretty sure I would have gone ahead and run the last two miles - even if they were run a little slow. And I'm 44 and still trying to get faster so don't give up yet! Great job sticking to the plan!

Way to stick to your plan, you are training smart. I will bet it was a little warm out there, too. I've always wanted to put this race on my calendar, but I have usually had a conflict. Keep up the great work, and all the best with the rest of your training! Great job, Beth! Way to stick to your plan, you are training smart. I will bet it was a little warm out there, too.

I admit - I would have had a tough time walking in the last two miles. Assuming I could make it that long. Eveyone expects you to be running, especially at the end. Great to keep YOUR needs in clear sight . . . let them wonder! Way to go! I admit – I would have had a tough time walking in the last two miles. Assuming I could make it that long.
