T-1 Day

Its 5:15pm on the day before I run the Chicago marathon. I just finished watching The Spirit of the Marathon.

Going into tomorrow, here are my goals:
   *Appreciate and take in the crowds
   *Enjoy it, I signed up for this for the experience, not to break any records
   *Give it my all in a way I feel good about, but in a way that does not end in my death, illness, or injury
   *Let myself go though whenever I need to go though to get to the end (hint: this will involve emotions)

I am definitely nervous, but more excited than anything else. I feel pretty good and ready to tackle this challenge I set for myself. 

I just keep thinking that I did 20 by myself and felt relatively ok, I even did laundry afterwards and then went to Michigan. After tapering and carbo-loading, I feel good and energized. I've slept fairly well and did my mental prep this week by watching a bunch of videos. 

I'll keep you posted, folks. 

Excitedly yours, S.
