Countdown

When you train for a race, typically, you build up your mileage and then you taper down.

Build up

10k
12k

Build down

Half marathon

Tomorrow I'm running 16k. It's my build up for the Niagara Falls half marathon on October 21st.

The next time I see 16k will be when I'm tapering for the race.

That also happens to be the day that Doug and I are running the Twin Cities 10-miler in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

The one where I get to wear the Global Heroes singlet.

Just the thought is enough to send shivers.

I'm excited and can't wait to be there.

I'm excited and hope it takes forever to arrive because I don't want it to be over.

I'm just exited.
