Denise,
Congrats! I know you must feel better! I did 101 last weekend for the first time since AUG; my current 'training plan' (which I am not following too closely) said to hold off on the century till now anyways.

I am also scared that I will not do as well this year as last year. Training here in Alabama without my old support group is just not the same. And I have had lots of running injuries so my running miles are much lower.

My longest run so far is 11 miles; not nearly enough. I am doing maybe 13 or 14 for the next few long runs and then bringing the mileage back down. AAGH!

So, without totally hijacking your thread with my own worries, I am with you this year on the very big nervousness. Just really hoping that the 3rd year of training/racing will pull through with some 'residual fitness' dividends that are not apparent right now.

good luck in the next few weeks, hang in there!
Laura
