Kept running with the toe (and yes, it did hurt). \u00a0Toe is now healed (yea!) and we were just a little behind on our training but not too bad.<\/p>\n<p>Then we got sick. \u00a0Colds. \u00a0Yikes! \u00a0A week off for that. \u00a0So,as of yesterday, knock on wood, we are as ready as we can be, all things considered, to run a half marathon on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>13.1 miles. \u00a07:00 am. \u00a0It&#8217;s supposed to be about 25 degrees F. and sunny. \u00a0Perfect running weather. \u00a0Will not overheat and it will be pretty! \u00a0Looking forward to Saturday. \u00a0This will probably (knock on wood) be our last race for this racing season. \u00a0Looking at the possibility of a full marathon next December with a buddy of my husband&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" id=\"photoimg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.msbluesmarathon.com\/assets\/images\/blueheader13.png\" alt=\"MS Blues Marathon\" width=\"950\" height=\"227\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today&#8217;s Run: \u00a0Running Group New Years Party!
