Today's Mileage: 0.50 miles
This morning I went to my boot camp class at the rec center (a class I LOVE which I've been attending twice a week since January). I mostly went to touch base with some of the women I've become friendly with (two of whom are also training for a half marathon) and to ask my instructor, who is a great athlete and racer, for any last minute tips.
The workout this morning was a High Intensity Interval Training (H.I.I.T) workout and I figured I need some cardio at this point, so I participated for about half of the hour long class.

I also didn't want to risk injuring myself or getting sore muscles at this point, so after a half hour, I left to find a place to stretch. I spent a good 20-25 minutes stretching really well...better than I ever do. It was great to be up early (again, it will help me sleep well tonight) and to get some activity in. Continuing to feel confident and excited....
