Subject: Excited!

Can I just say how excited I am to be running a half on Sunday?! Not that I think my performance is going to be amazing, but it's awesome to be a part of something bigger than myself once again. It's been about a month since my last race and I wasn't too happy with the result... it's good to be getting back into the game.

On Sunday...
I'll drive for an hour.
I'll meet up with 11 amazing people... some are running and some are recovering from marathons so they will be cheering.
I'll run for about 2 hours.
I'll burn about 1500 calories doing so.
I'll feel the terrific pain in my knees, ankles, shins, calves, quads, hammys, and (oh my gosh) ITB's,
I'll finish the race and pretend I feel okay.
I'll go out to eat and drink with my team.
I'll probably have one beer and be wasted due to the amount of "stuff" my body has lost during the day.
I'll drive another hour.
I'll be completely exhausted but...

I'll be happy and proud again. :)

Happy Half-ing!!
