Race Tomorrow!

Daily Total: 0; Weekly Total: 13 + marathon; Per Mile Pace: NA; Days Until Marathon: less than 1

As training comes to a close and the race is mere hours away, I'm feeling nervous, nauseous, confident, anxious, and excited all at once. We are again in the midst of a heat wave which is contributing to my nausea.

The race organizers are accused of being disorganized for expecting runners to shuttle bus to the race start at 4:00am, a whole 2.5 hours before start time, and half-marathoners to walk one mile to the start line. Poor planning indeed.

We'll see how it goes tomorrow. I have a fun playlist ready to go on my ipod. I'm trying to load up on nutritious food today while staying very hydrated.

These are not the ideal conditions I was hoping for - trying to limit pessimism and focus on the present.

Finish time coming soon.
