Week 7 - The Road to 13.1

This was the week where panic really set in.  It was part panic and exhaustion and then the thing that keeps you plugging along and sets you back on course...hope.  I had a really good training week overall...my only change in plan was taking a rest day on Saturday and then clocking my 7 miles on Sunday.  I am slow at the long distance walks.  I am so slow that at this point I don't know that I would even finish the half marathon in 4 hours.  So, I have lots of thinking to do.  I know I can go the distance...I have no doubts .  It is the time required that is going to be an issue.  I was ready to cancel out on the races...and just do 13.1 and 26.2 miles on my own.  No time pressure.  But then I thought...why not give it a bit more time?  Will
I get faster?  I won't know unless I keep trying...
