Fantastic Four

I ran this morning and it felt good. I felt better than the other day, when I felt blah about running in general. I guess I'm getting into the mindset I'm going to need for Saturday!

I did 4.13 miles in 43:15, for an average pace of 10:28. Splits were 9:55, 10:28, 10:41, 10:52, and 1:19 (for 0.13 miles at a 9:59 pace). My average cadence was 81. I am going to have to pick that up a bit I think. I sped up at the end because I was visualizing myself crossing the finish line on Saturday. I could see crowds and hear people cheering me on. I crossed with a big smile on my face. It was a nice visualization and I look forward to the reality in a few days.

When I got home the house was intact, though the sunroom door was open. I did give Tawny a pill with her breakfast, and that may have made the difference.
