Just 6 days to go for the Minneapolis 13.1 race! I am really looking forward to being back in Minneapolis. It is so hard for me to believe that I finished graduate school there in 1981 – Yes, that is 30 years ago. How is that possible? Anyway, it will be so nice to see the city again and to catch up with my good friend, Jerry, who has remained close friends all these years.
Based on the extended weather forecast, it looks like Sunday, August 21 will be a great day for a race. After isolated thunderstorms in the area earlier in the week, Sunday is looking mostly sunny at this point with a high of 79 degrees and only a 10% chance of precipitation.
I changed my training strategy for this week. Originally, I was going to taper in prep for the 13.1 miles. However, I've decided to treat the race on Sunday as if it was my long run for the week. So, I am pretty much planning to stick to my schedule for the rest of this week.
Have a great running week!
John
