Alright, so not the very last call before Virginia Beach, but only one more run before we hop on a plane to get down there.  I had a very busy weekend, so I didn’t get a chance to blog at all, so here’s how it’s gone:

Day: Friday

Workout: 7 miles

Time: 1:00:11

So this was my last long run before the race this coming weekend.  I originally attempted to do this at a slow pace, but the weather was awesome out (cool and cloudy), so my body just kinda took over and there I went.  I ran a new route, which actually worked out really well.  Good mix of hills and flat runs…so the run went well.  Will have to keep that one for future training runs.

Day: Today

Workout: 2 miles

Today I just wanted to get a short run in to keep the legs loose and fresh.  On Saturday I played paintball, so my thighs were still pretty sore from squatting so much.  The out and back I did is also a good up and down hill and back up and down…so you can get a good workout in.  After 1 mile I decided to kick it into high gear for about a half mile, just to see how it felt, and it felt pretty good.  Didn’t have my Garmin on though so I have no idea how fast it was.

So the plan is one more short run on Wednesday, then a very short run Saturday morning.  Then the race Sunday!!!  Hopefully we’ll have some good weather.

For now I’m checkin out, but I’ll be back Wednesday.  Run on friends!
