Okay, half-marathon #3 is tomorrow and guess what? I still feel ill-prepared! Just like two of the last three half-marathons! Except for the one where I got sick during. I felt pretty damn good going into that one, actually. Oh the irony.
However, I am taking this with a grain (carton?) of salt. I was sick. There is not much you can do about sick other than ride it out. So that is okay. Also, I got through my 12-mile two weeks ago, so things could be worse.
For some reason, this past week I was ridiculously tired. No idea why. No obvious culprit, apart from the usual requirements of my job. So I did not get running. I sat in the parking lot of my gym for a good 15 minutes and tried to make myself go run, but it did not work out. I'm just going with it.
I did get out today to do my '2 miles to remind you what running is the day before the half-marathon' run (yes, this is really a thing). Seeing as it has been almost a week, this was probably a good idea.
You know what? The next--and last--half is going to be awesome. Because I will stick to my training plan. And not get sick. Or else!
(PS - Admittedly, that is an empty threat. But I will get nowhere with pessimism.)
