The week leading up to the race is to be an easy one, and I've stuck to it though I was willing to do more: 6, 4, and 2 miles.
Tuesday's run:
I promise it was really 6 mi, but my iPod died before I finished my run. Sad, but it's a sign of the fact that with my new iPod I don't think about needing to charge it after every run (as I was doing with my old iPod). Subsequently, it hadn't been charged for at least 4 runs prior.
Yesterday's run was at dusk, around the Charles River, and while it was still 80 degrees outside. It was awesome.

That just leaves a little 2 mile jog tomorrow and the race on Sunday. I went out walking today to do some errands and keep my legs loose.
