Last long run before the half andddd **UPDATE :(
Im nervous but excited! Im going in a little while to do 12 miles then next Sunday is the half!
The marathon thread was my inspiration this a.m. Thinking of you girls doing 18 mile training runs gives me hope :)
Will let you know how i do
UPDATE:
So Im an idiot and drank all night and went to bed at 3am .. excuses excuses ... I couldnt even do 10. I had to stop at 9.5 miles. It took me foreverrrrrr, I kept having to stop. I felt so dehydrated. 9.5 miles took me 2 hrs 20 minutes 
BLEH.

forget about the distance and focus on the length of time you ran. 2:20 is a great last long run!!

Before my half I only ran 9 miles, and that was like three weeks before the race. You will be surprised at how far adrenaline carries you. Plus, you (probably) won't be hungover!

Re: Last long run before the half andddd **UPDATE :(
I would avoid doing much this week, do short runs, 4 miles early in the week and then 3 miles (all very slow) later in the week. I did that the week before my half marathon and it paid off--I made it in my goal (and my goal was a stretch) time.
