No time to be (a) patient

The countdown continues:  7 days to go.  Since I was a bit whipped from the road trip this past weekend, yesterday was a day off, both to recover and to give my legs a chance to heal.  I'm kneeling at the altar of the almighty foam roller and TP roller this week, hoping that things will continue to improve.  A fairly easy 6 miles at Noon is on my schedule today.  Tomorrow is a massage and then a last tune up run with a few miles at goal marathon pace.  I joked earlier this year that my goal marathon pace is nearly my long run pace, so I'm hoping it will feel easy.  It had better feel easy!
