Just over a week left until Boston

I have been cutting back on my running and trying to get some rest. I am at the point where I figure all the tough work is behind me and not to worry about cramming any more workouts than necessary. I just want to focus on staying rested and preparing myself for the run.

I have been left thinking what kind of pace I want to run this marathon at. I have been going back and forth on what kind of pace I can do. I just don't want to finish the race thinking that I should of started out faster or thinking I should not of gone that fast. I am leaving it to race day to figure out what I am going to run. I will of course have some times in mind before the race and will have done my research for what pace I will need to run to get these times. When I wake up I will she what my body will feel like and go from there. Maybe this is not the best way to go into a marathon but this is only my 3rd marathon in 9 years. I also look at these races as let go and have fun and hopefully get a great time while doing it. I will never be a top marathon runner so I might as well enjoy the race and all the time I put into it.
