Day 111 of 127 (countdown to 1/17/10)

It is soo nice to be tapering and backing off of those long, ongoing training runs.
Actually, I only ran once during the week (a recovery run after the long 20 last Sat) and then today I ran 6 miles. It was actually very sunny and warm (almost too warm) and I ran without my running partner so it was a challenging run. Also, I think that I am still recovering from that long run last week. I have a pain in my foot tonight (which I have iced) ... it is time to get this damn marathon over with! I have a ton of great memories from the long 18 weeks of training and a lot of great "power tunes" that have helped me through all of the runs.

I downloaded some new tunes and my favorite is Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run"!
Wow.... that should be in every runner's iPod or mp3 player.

Until next time... Kelly
