It's Over.
The taper is complete.
The next time I run will the be the Whistlestop marathon.
I am staying calm.
I am relaxed.
Also? I AM LYING.
But I AM thinking positive thoughts.
I AM reminding myself that I put the miles in.
I AM telling myself that I can do this.
My last taper run went well. I started near race pace, picked up the pace, did some stride outs, and brought it back down to race pace.
I'm ready. I have to be ready.
I'm going to bust my ass at this race...I'm going to give it my all and leave it all on the course. I WILL PR. I WILL MAKE THIS MARATHON MY BITCH. Well, maybe not...but I'll scowl at it menacingly so it will be a little scared of me...

I so wish I could go up and spectate. Hell, I wish I could race it (kinda)!
YOU ARE READY! You are so gonna rock this marathon.
BTW, with my weird mind, when I saw your title "over" it immediately made me think of an 80's song by the Motels. "take the L out of lover and it's over".
On my way to iTunes!

You most definitely will kick some marathon ass! Good luck.
Good luck. You'll run great. Run well and drink well.

P.S. For the last 6 months I've been sleeping with him for discounts on office supplies...and gift certificates to Outback Steakhouse.
