Sacfit Saturday - The I Heart Tapering Edition!!

Just have to love a good taper run! After my sucessful 20 miler last week on the agenda for this week was a lovely taper run of 10 miles! Pure bliss! I ran with Rebecca and we ran faster than our long run pace, but not quite as fast as our marathon pace (or did we? I dunno??) The difference between me and Rebecca is she is fast and she knows it - I have test results saying I'm as fast as her, but I'm not as confident in my pace as she is. She makes me run outside my confort zone and pushes me to embrace my pace and she is doing a darn good job at it! I am now just one "long" run away from my full marathon! I can hardly believe it! The run I have worked so hard for and trained so hard for is right around the corner! (oh and I say "long" run because my next saturday run is a mere 5 miles!) I'm feeling strong, confident and only a little bit frightened! So if anyone is bored and in the Sacramento area on November 14th feel free to stop on by and cheer me on! I will be "Running the River"!

Hi Bre! You are doing so well, and such an inspiration :)

I so so understand the eating thing, I am struggling with that at the moment too.

Good luck for the marathon, I can't wait to read about it!
