Well, I just did 5 miles this morning. Ended up walking the last 3/4 mile because I wore myself out in the heat trying to avoid some small dogs that were chasing me and nipping at my feet. I was about to squirt them with my water bottle when they gave up. I've never seen these dogs before and I run in this area quite a bit. It was 86 degrees when I got home and it's humid. I nearly ran out of water so the last thing I wanted to do was hose some dogs - and the plan was to do 6 miles today. *Sigh*

Susan, sounds like you'll be in great shape for your half mary. My longest run before my first HM was 10 miles. With good base miles, it'll go great.
