Ran with Cheri on our normal route. We just took it pretty easy and enjoyed the run. I must say its nice to be running with no pressure of training for anything. Still feel my lower ab towards the end of the run. For that reason I am not going to run the half tomorrow , its just not worth it to me to have it get worse at this point and I am just not in the mood to race. This past year was I raced so much and was so aggressive in training that I am flat race burned out. I have tried to tell myself  "i can just go run it and not really race it" but we all know that it wouldnt happen and I would end up racing it and taking the risk of turning the strain into something more. So I will just be taking it easy with the girls tomorrow.
