Hello runners,
This is the last SLR before Boston. This is the run to just keep the legs remembering what to do for race day, but without any pressure to push it or try anything new. We are, by the way, in the ‘Don’t Do Anything Stupid’ phase of training as you know.
We’ll run an easy 12.5 miles, appreciating all the hills that have accompanied you on this marathon training adventure, appreciating all our comrades who have shared sometimes too many intimate details of bodily functions and skin chafing avoidance theories, and appreciating lessons learned in the past 14 weeks that will bring you to the finish line of a long, long run.
Some of you are training for later marathons, so you may not share the same wistful feelings as those ready to lace up in Hopkinton. None the less, let’s get out there and enjoy this SLR.
Who is in? ROLL CALL…
I’m in for the full, as is my husband, Dan. I’ll be running from the lake in Wakefield before the start to put in 16. Longest ever run- yikes!
Neither of us are running Boston, but training for VCM in May. So jealous of all the Boston runners!
Can’t believe this is it.
In for the full.
OMG, I’m getting nauseous!
See you Sunday! And we’re off!!????
Tim and I are IN!! Looking forward to it…and the nice weather!
In for the full. i hope it doesn’t snow 🙂
I can’t believe this is it either. I am in and looking forward to it. 🙂
I’m thinking of running something? I can cover the water stop. we can have something ready for Leah and Dan if they run down to Brueggers.
Did my last run today…hope the wind dies down for you
I’m tapering down for next week so I can do a water stop instead of run. I’d like to help out.
In for the full!
I’ll be there for the long. Ready to take it easy.
In for the full – see you tomorrow morning!
I’m in for the full. VCM end of May though.
See you at 8
