1 YEAR AGO ALREADY!
That I became a marathoner! Today was the Toronto Marathon and it was and extra special run for me. I kept thinking how far I've gone with my running in a year. Lots of races: 2 marathons, 3 half-marathons, one 30K, one 10 miler, three 10K and two 5K. Ouf that is a lot!! I can say that I am as ready as I can be with only 4 weeks of training for the Detroit Half. I ran those 10 miles in 1h53 (11:20 min∕mile).
I met a French guy while running today, that totally made my day! We started talking around mile 5.5 and then chatted our way to the next 4 miles! It was great, made me completely forget about my legs being heavy and my body hurting. And I got to speak some French in Windsor so that always makes me happy!
Taper week is coming my way, Rocky and I will enjoy the lower mileage!! =)

That is an impressive running resume! Make me wonder what kind of numbers we'll be looking at in 10 years LOL
Yay! Happy anniversary! You have come a long way this year.
I think you should totally do Miami! It's a beautiful course (except for when it's pouring like last year) and it will be a nice break from the cold winter since it will more than likely be in the 70's (F). You can totally find a good hotel for a decent price. If you are going to stay longer than a day or two, maybe look on the beach, since there is not much to do in downtown. Just a thought. :)
I forgot to comment on your taper week! With the schedule that you and I have, shouldn’t it be taper day?
Oooh la la for the Frenchman! ;-)
That is one hell of a racing year you've had. Here's to another year full of races and fun!
Have an enjoyable and successful race this weekend!
