I will plan to do it, but if the day comes and I dont' feel up to it, I can always drop out into the 10k. (I have to decide before we begin though, as there are different starting points; same end point). I feel ok today. Yes, my legs are a little stiff but not enormously so. all joints feel fine which is the main thing. I did try to run slow yesterday and will not have a time in mind for the race. (except I obviously DO have a time in mind LOL! Hoping for 2 hours as my 10k pb is 50.31). Tempted not to wear the watch... what do you think? (It is only a stopwatch from our dollarama equivalent.)

Dog did what I wanted her to - lead the cattle off so that I could run on. Slow pace, v low HR. nice.

I think that's the big difference between a half and full marathon. With the full you get glycogen depletion and significant muscle trauma, with a half it's only glycogen depletion.
