I’ve been trying to stay connected with the blogosphere via, my niece, Kelly’s computer. Mostly, I’ve been checking in on those of you who will join me at the starting line tomorrow.
After reading about a few who are throwing their goals out the window due to the weather forecast, I have decided that now is a good time to withdrawal from the blogosphere.
I’ve been out in the heat of day and will admit that it is HOT. I ran off a whole two miles worth of nervousness. It allowed me to figure out what I had wrong in my shoe set up; my metatarsal cushions needed a layer pulled off. I think that I am set now.
Running safe will certainly be my priority. On the same note, I still remember the disappointment that I had when I had to throw out my goal at Grandma’s Marathon last year. I don’t want to do that again, IF I don’t have to. I’ve invested so much more this time around.
I remain confident that my training in the heat of summer has prepared me to endure these race conditions. I have to hold onto my goal and go for it.
I recieved my final words of wisdom from Coach Jeff and I am ready to go. So, until my race report…
I’m off to the races.
