Final long run; Countdown: 7 days

Today was my final long run of the training. And it went well! Couldn't complain at all.

I even used my new Under Armor head gear and it worked out well too.

I ran 8 miles, 1/3 of the marathon (minus 2 miles). 1:15:15. Not too shabby. I even managed a faster last 2 miles than the previous two! That was a surprise outcome!

I hope I'm ready. GAME ON!
