You write about running every single day. I sense lots of anxiety over a PR in Boston out of you, but I am struggling to understand why you put so much pressure on yourself. You have forayed into x-country skiing this winter and had a blast (ref: your recent race post). You have proven yourself TO yourself so many times. Just slip back into the mileage you are used to and go hit Boston w/ your usual intensity. Besides, is Boston the ideal PR venue? Just my 2 cents...Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18340810097551928846noreply@blogger.com
