      GREAT GREAT job!! So proud of you! That was a merciless course, especially that last half. The sun was just beating down and it was a "real feel" of close to 80! You did amazing considering the awful heat. Next October, that BQ is YOURS!!

      I can't believe that it's almost race day for you! How exciting! Looks like it should be a bit warm but not as bad as last year. Enjoy every minute of it!

      I keep checking the weather hoping that the temps will go down for Sunday! Hopefully it will stay cool earlier so you don't have to battle the heat....but even if it is hot, I know you've got a great race (and BQ!) in you!

      It was hot out! I was running my tush off and was seeing a lot of really slow miles! 7 @ MP in this heat when not acclimated yet is great!

      When is your marathon? I would encourage you to really rest. Maybe take a few days TOTALLY off. You don't want to be worn out for the big event. During rest, your muscles can recoup and rebuild and you'll probably find that you are stronger for it.

      Awesome job Katie!! Which Hanson's training program are you doing? I'm doing one, but combined it with another program, but the one I'm following has 12 mile MP runs right up until the week before which I think is a little much...
