17 Days til the Half Marathon

17 days to go.  Checking the weather, the 10-day forecast is a lot of rain and even a little snow.

I guess that means that I need to toughen up as I prepare my final two and a half weeks to my peak on race day.  What's on tap for training during that time?  I have a speed workout to do tomorrow fillowed by an easy 2 mile day on Friday.  Sunday will be my last really long run before the race.  I have a 17 miler planned.  However, I find myself questioning if that is too long and perhaps a repeat 15 miler would be more than enough. 

I recovered from my 15 miler much easier than I thought I would this week.  Monday I was able to get around without problems and I felt good doing a 6 mile tempo-ish run on Tuesday.  I may just stick with the 17 miler.  It feels good to push the envelope . 

160.5 miles down, 64 to go!
