Friday, February 05, 2010 – 30 days until marathon

Yet another rest day, but am beginning to feel pumped for long run tomorrow. Picked up a hand-held water bottle for tomorrow morning. We’re scheduled to start at 5:00 from the Trim Gym parking lot. I’m supposed to go to Brickhouse tonight to hear a band, but I’ll be crawling into bed early, anyway. First session is a ten-miler that they estimate will take 1.5 hours. We’ll pick up a group at the same parking lot at 6:30 and Aimee Spencer and I will get in another 8 even if the group goes for ten more. I had really wanted to sleep, but the psychological mechanics of group running will do me some good.
