One week to go!

Unbelievably, this was the final 'long run' of my 2008 Flying Pig Marathon training! It's been quite a ride.
Today we were at the Red River Gorge. My running partner, Domingo, actually left his home in Cincinnati at around 4:15 am in order to run with me at 7 am. He showed up right on time, and we headed to my car. We drove to the pull-off for Rock Bridge road on KY715 and decided to run from there. It's about a 3 mile gravel road, and a 1.75 mile trail down to Rock Bridge, then of course 3 miles back to the car.
It was a beautiful day for a 'short' run. 60 degrees, no wind, no rain. The Rock Bridge trail was amazingly beautiful. Getting back up the trail to the road was pretty tough... but today was supposed to be a relatively easy day so we didn't push it.
All in all it was a beautiful run. A nice wind-down from previous weeks. And, importantly, nothing hurts! Bring on The Pig!
Keep the faith.
