Anticipation

Friday, July 24, 2009

So, Sunday's the big day. I'm waiting for Chip to get back from the airport where he picked up my folks and my in-laws. I'm happy to have family in town for the big day, though it also adds to the nerves.

Am I ready?

I think so. It's hard to know, it being my first marathon. The good news is that most of the route I'm familiar with; I've utilized much of it for my regular and long runs. I went to the expo to pick up my shirt and bib today. It was crazy. Truth be told, I don't think I'll get into the whole running lifestyle. I think it will just continue as a way for me to stay fit, on top of the new healthier diet Chip and I have just started.

I'm excited and nervous, but mostly excited.

26.2, here I come.
