Yesterday I got the "Confirmed Runner Instructions" for the Cherry Blossom 10 Mile Run. These people are serious about their time limits. Because of deals with the National Park Service, the race starts at 7:50 and ends at 10:30. So as long as I am below a 14:oo/mile pace I can finish the race. As the instructions say, this is a "run" not a walk.
I should be fine. I know I can run the first 5 miles in just under 1 hour, so I should be good for the next 5 miles. These people mean business! :-)
Now that I have my confirmation and bib number, I am really excited about this run. It should be fun and beautiful. Looking forward to seeing old friends of mine in the D.C. area.
So today I am going to work on some speed work. Do a couple miles faster than I have been doing, and then a couple miles slower. That is the plan.
