Current day:
This weekend
it will be three weeks until Hartford Marathon. I’ve been averaging 50+ miles a
week since late July. I have had plenty of long runs of 20 miles and a high of
21 miles. Some of these long runs were with a group and two were alone – alone sucks
like winter. I have discussed running this Marathon with everyone that will
listen – especially runners who have run Marathons before – looking for all
kinds of advice. I have no idea what my body is going to do after 21 miles. I don’t
want to go out hard and hit the wall around 18. I want to run a smart race –
can you run smart? Remember, I went to Chariho, I have to use spell check writing
this.
Summarizing –
I’m turning into a basket case. The anxiety
is getting to be overwhelming as I’m thinking about this race all the time –
even in my sleep. What to eat, what
about the weather, what should I wear (I know Muddy, cloths). What pace to run,
What if it’s windy…………………Some of these things or concerns are out of my control
– that I know.
Oh,
Godfather, I don't know what to do. I don't know what to do. ...
