Ready for the weekend!

04/09/09 | by Tom [mail] | Categories: News, Papa John's 10 Miler

This weekend is the Papa John's 10 miler. I'm as ready as I'm going to get. This will be the longest race I have completed yet, and it will be my judge for my preparedness for the mini marathon on the 25th. I have ran my last run until this weekend last night. I ran 6 miles at a 9:15 pace for 6 miles. I felt pretty good, but I had planned 8. I started feeling a little twinge in my right knee, and decided not to push it this close to the 10 miler. Now we shall see.

This weekend is also Easter weekend, so that means I will spending most of Sunday with family. I am looking forward to that. I haven't spent enough time with family lately.

Tomorrow is only a half day for me at work as I am taking off the second half to go pick up my packet for Saturdays race, and hopefully hang out for a while at the expo with Joe and Kriston.

I hope everyone has a great weekend, and anyone racing any race anywhere has a great race.
