Better to go out too slow and make it up at the end than crash and burn.<br /><br />As for not doing all that speedwork, etc, I have a feeling that might actually help you in the end :-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01535047973293442700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5077005805514894959.post-15697487283332000372014-05-13T14:41:31.968-05:002014-05-13T14:41:31.968-05:00I think Napoleon would think you're cheating o...I think Napoleon would think you're cheating on him!

So I would skip out on the 3:45 group. <br /><br />Do you think if I get my own dog Napoleon will decide we can't be friends anymore?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15351579053400057634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5077005805514894959.post-23534195810956352292014-05-13T13:51:57.218-05:002014-05-13T13:51:57.218-05:00You've done the work.

Focus on this. It's supposed to be fun!<br /><br />I'm with Amanda, if it were me, I would start with the slower of the two pace groups and pick it up at the end. But that's generally how I race - start conservatively and pick it up. <br /><br />YOU'VE GOT THIS! Just enjoy the miles.

Less pounds might help too so great job! (although that's not always the answer lol). <br /><br />In my opinion, I would hang with the 4:00 pace group. The 3:45 might be too fast and you could crash earlier than you would like. Good luck! You will do awesome!!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10155443976345011433noreply@blogger.com
