Looking forward to the Chilly Half

Thanks to the folks at Mizuno Canada (major sponsor at the event), I'm entered in The Chilly Half (Burlington).
This race sells out every year and this year is no exception.

I'm excited to find out why this race has such a strong following and my main goal is to soak up the experience. I can almost sense that it will join the Mississauga Half as one of my faves.

While I'm not 100% heading into this race (big workouts leading to tired legs, sore hammies, etc.), it should provide for a nice benchmark to gauge how training is going. Plus, it will serve as a good piece of "speedwork" before heading off to do a steady run at the Around the Bay 30 km (I am the 3:15 pace bunny).

Needless to say, 'll be fully decked out in my Mizuno gear and Elixir shoes for the event on Sunday.
