I Think I'm Ready

Well, I have made it through to the last long run on my schedule. I completed 22 miles this morning under threat of severe rain. Temperature today was 77 degrees with 86% humidity. It was a fairly tough run but I managed to get through OK. I guess you could say the wind up from Hurricane Ike helped keep off the effects of the humidity. It almost felt cool and it even rained occasionally. Ahh!

After I was done, I enjoyed breakfast with some of my running buddies. Actually went to The Original Pancake House. Boy, they serve a whole lot of bacon. Four big, thick salty pieces of bacon. Just the right combination of salt and protein. And pecan pancakes, too. After a short trip to Starbucks I went home, suffered a 20 minute ice bath, took a shower and napped. The perfect way to start a rainy Saturday.

Now, three weeks to St. George. It's taper time.
