Off to the Race

Well, this will be my last post before my race - it looks like the weatherman has calmed things down a bit, still going to be cold (30 degrees in the AM) but no snow in the forecast. Also looks like the winds may calm just a bit for our race, as they are predicted to shift from a westerly Friday night to an Easterly on Saturday - hopefully there will be a lull around 8:00 AM when we jump in!!!!!

My taper went pretty well, still do not have my resting heart rate down to where it should be (maybe I shouldn't have done those hill repeats last Sunday) but it is trending down. Usually I can get it down to the 50 or 52 BPM, but it is still at 58 this morning - should be a little lower tomorrow morning (before I get amped up for the race).

My race weight is 164 pounds - about 5 pounds lighter than last year (thanks to the Napa Marathon).

As near as I can tell we do not have lodging set up for tonight - I guess we will have to "wing-it" once we get there.
