We're down to the last week before the Cincinnati Half Marathon. My training runs have gone really well the last few weeks.
As a recap:
- on 9/28, I ran 13 miles with my dad in 2:21:42. This was an experimental run: I ran with a bottle of water, and I spaced out my fueling to miles 5, 8 and 11 with a swig or 2 of water. I drank very little other wise. This seemed to work, I finished strong. And no puking :)
- on 10/7, I ran 10 miles in 1:43. This was a weird run. My phone died at exactly half way. So I ran the last 5 miles with no music. Not something I plan to revisit. Pretty sure I said "I just have to get back to the car" about 70 million times. But I was pretty happy with my ending time, which ironically my average paced turned out to be the average pace I want for the race this weekend.
For this week:
Sunday: I ran 3 miles in 27:17.
Monday: 10 miles, holding a 9:45 to 10:00 pace for the first 5 miles and a 10:00 to 10:15 pace for the second 5.
Tuesday: rest
Wednesday: 3 miles
Thursday: 3 miles
Friday: 3 miles, probably walk 2, jog 1.
Saturday: race day!!

The kids are rocking school. We are very proud of both of them.
I went on a field trip with Noah's class to a local pumpkin farm. We had such a good time. I had a great group. Except Noah went to jail :)
And what about this awesome view on the hayride?
