After laying off both cross training and running for the last two days in an effort to allow my body to rest in anticipation of Merrill's Mile 24 Hour Race this weekend in Dahlonega, GA, I decided it was time to get a least a short run in. Rather than just take it easy as initially planned and going slightly longer, I went out short and fast. I went on my old UAH Loop and managed to squeeze out a new PR over the 4.3 mile loop of the university campus. I beat my previous best by over a minute and while it wasn't race pace, it still was another nice little confidence booster, which I have been in dire need of since my problems during Laurel Valley. Another short and easy loop either tonight and tomorrow and then it's taper all the way to Saturday:-) Oh, that's just two days you say?...Oh well;-)
