Today is March 18, the day before my practice race, and I have toyed all day with how I can get out of this. I started with the excuse that I have been on spring break all week and just was "too tired". That was too generic. I seriously considered faking an illness.....hmmm...still a thought. I have checked the weather 4 times this hour for tomorrow's forecast (praying for rain) but none seems to be coming and finally I considered writing this blog today about how being a Loser is ok with me.
Still thinkin it through!!! JUST KIDDING> I have tried so hard up to this point to train, I am not gonna let my spring break laziness keep me from showin up tomorrow. I may be the last one across the finish line at the Irish-Italian festival 5k (keep it mind...this is my PRACTICE RACE :) ) but I will get across it. I have heard they give you cookies at the finish line. Maybe I have delusions of granduer (SP???) but in any event...stay tuned to see how it goes tomorrow. I will be visualizing for most of the day tomorrow (that's what tiger woods and eli manning do....I've heard) so please no emails, phone calls, distractions (I can't even write this....I'm laughin so hard) as I am mentally preparing for this race. :) If any of you would like to drop off some "good luck brownies" however, I will stop visualizing long enough to accept them.
ANYWHO....I'm super nervous and a tad embarrased, but I have to take this first step! Success is failure turned inside out right????
