Monday, Monday!  Less than seven days left!  After resting for two days, I ran about eight miles on Saturday with a little over six of them around marathon pace (or what I hope marathon pace to be).

Heather (Nichols) Knight marathon journal: 'Rest is good' John Olson Oct 9, 2008

My name is Heather (Nichols) Knight, a former Hillcrest High School distance runner.  Although, while I am getting ready to run my first marathon, a 5K cross country course doesn’t seem like so much distance anymore.  I am three weeks away from the big day and about to begin my tapering.  I will be keeping a journal of my experiences/training from now until (and slightly beyond) my race.  I will be running the Nike’s Women’s Marathon in San Francisco with Team in Training on Oct. 19.
