Rain gave way to gusty overcastness as I headed out to meet the Vivacious Redhead for a quick run and some coffee.
We ran up and down the side of the park, then got ourselves over to Milk Bar, where I 'carbo-loaded'. Heh.
With butterflies and a scratchy throat, I then headed over to the expo with Ivy League. Managed to get in and out in 45 minutes. Which is quite a feat.
That place is crazy! I'm so glad I didn't go today.
Today, forcing myself to do work, knowing that I likely won't do any tomorrow. It's hard, with all these nerves and extra energy.
It's weird how I can get nervous, even knowing that I won't have that great of a time, given my in-shapeness. Me and my vivid imagination........
Just read about those women who get to start with the elites. Sure, they run the whole course pretty much by themselves. But they get to start with the elites. And there's likely more cheering! If only I could shave 20 minutes off of my best time.........

Good luck! You'll do great... you've trained for it. And most importantly, enjoy yourself!
