last night
- run 35:18, 6.88 km
nice and easy, beautiful weather.
it rained hard earlier this week and the course is very well shaded (it's almost entirely on forest trails) so there's a chance of some mud tomorrow. hoping the stream you have to cross twice isn't that high. but weather-wise, should be perfect: 40s-50s fahrenheit, low humidity, not much sun. i haven't slept well the past couple of nights, hoping i can at least sleep for ~6 hours tonight. planning to eat a bunch of pasta tonight, go to bed, get up at 5 to eat (my normal smoothie plus i'll add a bowl of cereal for the extra calories), have coffee, and give myself time to wake up a bit before i hit the road at 5:45. packet pickup starts at 6:30 AM, race starts at 7:30. must not forget safety pins.
i'm excited, a little nervous. lfg.
