The Last Run Above 10 Miles

Today we ran the last run before the Mardi Gras Marathon (Feb 24) that is above 10 miles. Our 'Novice' training has a pretty significant taper (you can look at the schedule here) and so we stay under 10 miles the rest of the way out. That is an intimidating drop in mileage, but it seems as if all marathon training follows the same pattern.
It was actually too hot a day for a good run. I certainly hope that the marathon day is cooler than today. Thought it was a nice day to go sit out at the Fly, it wasn't a nice day to be running up and down St. Charles all day.
Monday is an off day, as always, as we return to school following the Mardi Gras break. We'll have some more St. Bernard photos and info up soon, and we'll also have some pics of us running (though Kathleen seems embarrassed at the idea of it).
For now, I'll just give you the two most important links on this page again:
