Week 8 Training

I am behind, but I thought I would start with this week.

M-Did not run. We are at Jeff's parents house and we are taking it easy this week before the half marathon.
T-Ran 3.5 miles. Did not feel too great, but not too bad. We were on a time schedule and were heading to the temple.
Th-Ran 6 miles. My heart rate was alright, but I did not feel as good as I would like.

It is Friday and Jeff and I are running the Provo Half Marathon tomorrow. I am a little nervous for the elevation, but it is a run that I have heard is a lot of fun. My goal is to run a 1:45, which is the pace that would help me feel confident that I am on my way to qualify for Boston. I am trying not to put too much pressure on myself though, so we will see what happens. It will be fun to run with Jeff again. My sister is also running it with us.

My PR for a half is 1:49, but that was in 2006. I never ran a half in 2008 when I was in peak shape. So, here are my goals.

1. Finish and have fun! (Under 2 hours)
2. PR (Under 1:49)
3. 1:45

I will report back!
