I even texted my cousin yesterday told her I was pretty sure I was gonna die on Saturday. She called and talked me down. I started to think when did this happen. When did I start feeling this way? I think it might have been when I exposed my goal. The one you keep in your head and when ya don't you immediately regret saying anything and don't feel prepared for it. I should be prepared, I could have done it three weeks ago if I wouldn't have gotten those leg cramps. So guess what... From this moment on I will no longer think horrible things happening to me. I will think of that finish line and the clock saying something like 4:29:55 or something. I will eat good the rest of the week, and drink water like CRAZY!!!! It is gonna be perfect weather again!! How can I ask for something better!! I'm gonna go over the course in my head and think about where I had trouble last year and blast through it! I'm not gonna let my negative attitude ruin my goal! and tonight when I go for my last run I'm gonna take it easy and think about how awesome I am!
I'm GONNA DO THIS!! I'm gonna achieve my goal!! OH YES I CAN!
ps
I came across this funny blog on Daily mile. oh yes I have been doing a few of these. I refused to take any responsibility last night for this weekend because of the marathon, I am totally having a taper tantrum.

#3 you don't have me!
I get pre-race jitters so badly! I hate it!!! I drank a bunch of caffeine the night before my first Half Marathon, and I was a wreck!!
ReplyDeleteGood Luck on Saturday! Try to enjoy it!! It's more fun to achieve your goal if you can enjoy yourself while you do it! Good Luck!! You'll be great!!
