prerace jitter?

so this weekend I have two runs! YES TWO RUNS!! I don't mind, even if the second one will probably not be in the running for a PR. I am doing a 10k in the morning and a 5k in the afternoon.
I think it is strange that I am a little nervous since this is my first 10k (Does the Dirty Dash really count, really?) I have ran over 6 many times and even ran the half marathon so I shouldn't be nervous but I am. I think that maybe it is because my sisters will be there doing the 6k walk. I am so happy they are getting out and joining me. They trained a tiny bit but not as much to get the fitness fever. :)
So this weekend I almost feel like I'm coming full circle. My first 5k was the Love Your Body 5k last August and back then I decided this year I would run the 10k. so I have come full circle and made it the year. I set a goal and made it! AMAZING! I think I will feel pretty accomplished with this run. I loved it so much last year!
