Next Stop - Half Marathon

Distance: 7.2 Miles
Song of the Run: Shattered (Turn the Car Around) - O.A.R.

Weather: 52  degrees, breezy


Run Notes:
What a beautiful autumn day!  Mild and cool with light breeze.  The most fantastic thing about this morning was the quality of the light.  I may have mentioned before how golden the light becomes during fall.  

So this is my last run before the half marathon on Saturday.  I am nervous  about the run, for reasons I do not  fully  understand.  I know I have  trained for it and am ready for it  physically but I just can't seem to get my head in the game.  I drove the course, or what I could of it, yesterday and it looks relatively flat and fast.  Perhaps it is just the word marathon that is stopping me.  I have run a marathon before and I remember the last few miles as difficult.  I was tired and wanted nothing more than to stop.  This is different though.  My body is okay with it, I just need to wrap my head around it.

Wish me luck!
