Sondra & I somehow managed to complete almost 5 miles in 102 degree heat index weather. The humidity was really high. I was so glad when we finished - not so much because we were done for the night but more because we conquered another challenge. The hills are still terrible but knowing that we can continue once we have passed them gives me hope!
We will go through the course again on Wednesday night. Hopefully our calves won't be as grouchy on Wednesday as they were on Monday and we can jog more.
My excitement grows as we come closer to race day. At first I wanted to run most of the way. Further into training I wanted to not be last. Now I am not as concerned with time, pace, etc as I am with crossing the finish line. Cassie, Amanda & Katie have given so much of them selves to allow us to get this far. Remarkable young women - my life has been enhanced from knowing them.
