You don't need to over-distance your long running to prepare for a 10K. In fact, you will likely get better results focusing on tempo sessions or intervals than on any "long" running.<br /><br />Here's more good news: Everyone else will be tired, too, after the swim and the bike. You don't need a perfect (or even continuous) run to capitalize on a solid swim and bike. Everyone will be in a painful place right there with you.<br /><br />Get yourself into a good mental place for the run, a place where you anticipate the difficulty and know that it's manageable and temporary. On race day, say nice things to yourself, focus on picking off the people ahead of you, remind yourself that you rocked the swim and bike and that your kicking diabetes in the ass with every stride, and those kilometers will surely pass quickly.<br /><br />And I'm crossing my fingers for you, too.Jeffhttp://www.jeffmatherphotography.com/dispatches/noreply@blogger.com
