We waited most of the day for the drizzle to quit. Finally we just decided to run in the drizzle. Temp 47, but not much wind so it was not a bad day. The drizzle quit about 1/2 way through the run. Everything looks so pretty after a rain. Fortunately we didn't get much. The farmers are way behind and we could really use a few weeks of warm, dry days. Sheyenne River is finally dropping, so roads and driveways are starting to open up. Prayers for everyone down south battling the Mississippi.

Average pace was 8:35 and that was a struggle. Did not feel great today. Think I will spend taper week mostly resting with some low, easy mileage.  I'm still debating whether or not to wear Mr. Garmin during the race. I have never worn a watch during a race. I just kind of go on how I am feeling. So I don't know. ???

I think garmin or no garmin is a tough question. I like running with it personally, but I find that when I get tired, I get obsessed with looking at it way more often than I need to. I guess you have to decide whether you think you need it to pace yourself OR if you'd be freer (and faster) not knowing! Good luck with the decision!
