Commence Countdown

I've begun thinking of my race in terms of how many key workouts I have left.

That number is 3.

As in, 3, 2, 1... commence marathon.

1. Today -15 miles with the last 8-10 miles at marathon pace.

2. Saturday- 3 x 2 miles at Tempo Pace with a 1/2 mile steady recovery in between.

3. Wednesday- 8 miles, with the last 3 at marathon pace.

Sunday, April 25th is the Marathon.

...Good thing I'm not thinking of the marathon in terms of how cool Chuck Norris is.

QUE THE LIST!

Happy hump day, everyone!

Warning: This post has nothing to do with running.

My running is going so well, I'm afraid to jinx it by writing about it. Or thinking about it. Or even doing it. (That explains why I left my shoes at home today when I planned to run after work).

So, today is all about Chuckie. Everything you always wanted to know about Chuck Norris* but were afraid to ask.

Enjoy**.
