What was I Thinking???

How could I have signed up for a 5K race tomorrow morning?? I'm not ready. I didn't run yesterday and today's too close to the race to run. I wanted to practice at least once more. I don't know the course--maybe it's all uphill. DH is going to run it too--he's a speed demon, I'll be miles behind him. Maybe I could just skip the race--but then we're out the application fee and we don't get the T-shirt.

I don't usually get this anxious about things, but this one really does have me a little wired. I want to do a race. I know I've put in the training to be able to do this. But, it's new. It's a little scarey. I feel like a toddler who climbs to the top of the slide only to balk at going down.

Okay, I'm getting over it. I'm not a toddler, I am woman, I am strong. Tomorrow is my first 5K and I'm going to do it!

Today is beautiful outside. Think I'll go for a bike ride.

It was so nice out today!! We got lots of painting done on the new house, and it was nice to be able to have all the windows open.

Comment by Sally on November 2, 2008 at 5:54pm: You will be fine!! Remember, you can run for an hour, you can do 5K, no worries!! Think of the new shirt you will get! The DH can just finish first, and be there ready with water/coffee whatever at the finishing line!
