The Night Before Fifth Third

The night before a big race is invigorating! Honestly,it marks a night of little sleep and enormous anticipation! I run about every race on adrenaline! And a little caffeine! I rely on the crowd to pump me up and I feed off of every runner lining up. I love race day!!!!! And I will miss lacing up my shoes, pinning my number to my shorts, going to the bathroom a couple of times, drinking one last cup of water, checking my Garmin one last time, finding my place amongst a sea of eager runners and lastly...I will miss the rush of excitment as the line begins to move closer to the starting line and the feeling of accomplishment as I cross the finish line! To my friends who have trained so hard, who have overcome injury and emotional obstacles as you trained.....I wish you the BEST OF LUCK!!!!!! I have no doubt that you will each accomplish a goal that you never thought possible. I am VERY proud of each of you! I wish that I could be running beside, in front or behind any of you....but for this year......know that I am cheering you on and running in spirit with each of you! Cannot wait to hear of your accomplishments!!!!!!!!!!! Ready, set, GO!!!!!
Until our next run.............!
