5 miles on a fancy treadmill in my fancy hotel. The weather sucks. Tome goals are out the window tomorrow. Just race hard and consider it a great pre-marathon tune up.

Fancy hotel? Oh, you must've gotten one of those with the quarter slot for the bed.

Yes, and the bars on my window make me feel so safe and secure. High class!

Sorry the weather is crappy. But maybe it's a blessing in disguise? Throwing the time goals out the window might help you not be so stressed during the race and that can help give you a mental boost no matter what the outcome. Make sense? Just race hard and be tough...you are good at doing both! Love ya!
