Ok it's official. Race mornings freak me out. That's today. My first race since my surgery, and I'm flipping out. Slept like poo poo....stomach is upset. Ugh. Thinking maybe if I write this before I head out the door it will help? Probably not! I'm running with some friends today, who agreed to stick with me. We're running at a super slow pace (we decided this up front. 10:30-11 minute miles. NO faster). So technically I should already know my finish time. But for some reason I'm still nervous that I will be sucking wind at mile 1!
59 is my 10K PR, but noway am I hitting that today. Emz told me to pick 3 finish times, so here they are:
Happy with: 1:10
Really happy with: 1:02
Buying everyone a beer afterward: 1:00
Anything between 1:02 - 1:10 and it will be a good day.
I'm off! Race day weekend begins! Wish me luck!
