11 days to go
I did my last long run tonight before the Ottawa Half marathon in 11 days. From here I only plan a couple of 5k runs.
I did 15km tonight which is the longest distance I have run since the Toronto Waterfront half in the fall.
I had to do at least 10k this evening. But packed my fuel belt to go 15 and decided at around the 6k point that I felt good and to do the 15. I also kept my pace really slow an easy and because of that I didn't feel out of breath and took very few walking breaks.
It was at the 15k point in last years race that I hit a wall (triggered by the hills in Gatineau). So I know this year I hope to take it easy on my pace until crossing the river, try to maintain an okay pace over the hills and then hopefully have enough energy to push it through the last 4km and in the end beat my 2:51 personal best time.
I will sleep well tonight.
