Monday--bike commute only
Tuesday--RUN 4 miles in 40 mins, bike commute
Wednesday--RUN 2 miles
Tuesday's run was a random track workout. I joined the group but the XC teams and BBall teams had priority there, so we didn't do much in the way of a structured workout. I felt sluggish, heavy, tired, weak, and anxious.
Wednesday was with my doggie, who barely made it the mile. OK, she made it more like 0.84 miles.
Thursday I skipped the group run, but had a bundle of energy that I took out to Forest Park for a 3.2 mile walk. The sunshine, the cicadas, the green trees, crunch of limestone under my feet...
Friday TH and I drove down to the race. Still felt sluggish, I tried to nap in the early afternoon. Finally in the last few hours of prep I got the nervous twittery feeling.
On the drive to TH, I heard many soundtrack songs on the radio--Party Rock Anthem, Even If It Breaks Your Heart, and more. I listened to my 2012 soundtrack, many of the songs resonate and inspire.
My race evening was mentally disorganized, I was a bit bumbly and tired. But I had most everything planned on in my notes beforehand thankfully. I ate a very tiny dinner, having eaten a big brekkie and lunch. I'm good to go!
