Well the work is done. I am as ready as I will ever be for Chicago. I feel confident but not overly confident. I am confident I will have fun and enjoy the race, but I am not sure I will finish in my goal time of sub 4 hours. I will start with that pace group and see what happens. I am very good at readjusting my goals mid-race if need be. I am excited to be visiting the windy city. I have only been once and that was for a short visit when I was 12 years old!
Hope everyone is having a nice beginning of Fall!
Running, biking and swimming all over New England with my family and friends celebrating good health, happiness and chocolate.

20 Miles ...Done
Last night after working with three and four year olds all day, I ventured out along a beautiful slightly hilly long run in the drizzling rain.
It was awesome.
I felt great the entire run. It was not real speedy but I am not worried. My sweet sweet friend, Deb, met me at mile ten at the top of this freakin bear of a hill to support me for the last ten miles. It was great and I am so psyched for Chicago. I have another longish run next week and then taper baby!!!
The marathon is less than 30 days away! Woo Hoo!
