      Barry, great pace work today, but also a GREAT mental workout. 40 laps on that track completely dialed in is no joke. You are ready to run a great marathon Barry. Now it is all in the execution of your race plan (no last second decisions to go faster b/c you feel good). Looking perfect.

      The sentence where you say that "today was the best and hardest training run I've ever done" says it all. Just greatness all around. Of course, love the fast finish. Huge week in the books for you--and you didn't miss a beat. Stay smart through the rest of this--although I know you will. Just really happy to see all of this coming together for you Barry.
