Today I ran my last long double digit training run of 12 miles. I decided to run at Bear Creek, but skipped the crazy Keller Killer hills. I don't want to risk getting hurt this close to my marathon. Hard to believe that a week from today I will be running the Nashville Rock n' Roll Marathon. Boy did time fly! I think I'm ready, but my right hamstring is a little sore. I rolled as soon as I got home and taking it easy the rest of the day. It's raining and yucky outside to go anywhere anyway. I was able to beat the rain and the weather was in the 60s. The Texas Longhorns were out with their babies. Love running outdoors in nature. It was a good run and finished under 8:00 min. per mile. I had to go work at our school Health/Art Craft Fair at school for 2 hours after running so had to pick up my pace. However, when I would feel my hamstring pull, I made myself slow down. It only hurt when I would go faster. I pray, it gets better for the marathon. Plan on doing easy runs this week and lots of yoga, core work and of course teach my cycle classes. I also plan to stick to my nutrition. Nashville, I worry about your hilly course, but I'm sure it's not as bad as Boston Marathon. I'm ready to Rock n' Roll all over your city!
