You guys are making me a little nervous about the back to back long runs.
How many should you do before the race? I'm planning a slow wog for the Goofy. I am building my distance, but don't think I'll get up to doing more than a 16-17 long wog before the marathon. (I realize that is not ideal, but I'm gonna run out of time. ) That's why I plan to take it slow.
Any suggestions?

Terri - If you go to
tricharlotte.com, and click on marathon training, that is what Bree, DH and I are doing for the Goofy training. We do the shorter LRs @ a slower pace then start SLOW for the long LRs. If you want more info, you can click on the email on this web page and ask Ron. He knows everything!

If you can, try to get to at least 18 miles on your WOGs. It may make the last part of the marathon less hard. 20 would be better, but I understand the time thing.
Sunny - YOU LOOK HOT! (Not as in temp, but as in GREAT!)

I always look so bad in these pictures! You look so good that you need to just kick anyone that ever questions you running a marathon!
The shirt info - My opinion is to go with something bright. I had on white last year and Bree had on purple. It was hard for scream teamers to locate us b/c the ones who are not TNT and wearing purple are wearing white. Yellow is not my 1st choice, but I bet we would stand out!
Did my short LR today on the TM, 7 miles at a slow pace! It felt good. Even with the warm up, I finished in 70 min (TM was on a 6 - 6.5). This was my goal. Bree and I will do 14 tomorrow. It is raining now so send your

to us so we don't have to do 14 in the rain. B/c we will if we have to!
Took DDs swiming yesterday, but did not do much b/c of the LRs. Trying to be good!
