This being my first race and all I am new to all this stuff; and to top it off, I have LOST my MfM book.
So, I'm doing the half, and I know I'm not supposed to stop everything completely. Should I be doing some nice easy walks? Can I still get one last long walk in (if I do it today)? I was sick a few weeks ago and the kids have been home and dh been out of town making it impossible for me to get out. He gets back today though, so I could get out. My longest outing was a 10 miler. I felt I could have done 3 more miles -- if I had an unlimited amount of time to do it. All I have been able to do are some Walk Away the Pounds tapes. I've been doing the 3 mile and then the 2 mile back to back. I don't know how accurate those are as far as pacing, and of course, walking in place is a lot different than walking outside or even on a treadmill.
Thanks everyone for your help.
