(Except a Half Marathon)
This picture reminds me so much of Jana and myself. I don't know who would be who though, we probably are always alternating between the blind optimism of Buzz and the pure terror of Woody.
Today is officially 5 months till race day. That is just so close, I can't believe it. 5 months to whip ourselves into tip top shape. 5 months to run farther than ever before. I have never gone more than 4 miles in my running career, and I can't imagine running 13.1. But then again, I could have never imagined being able to run a 5k either, and now I have run several. So I'm sure in a few months, I will be able to check half marathon off my bucket list.
Sometimes I am overcome with fear about this race. Fear that I will get swept by the balloon ladies, fear that I won't be able to finish, and fear that I will never be that runner that I really want to be. But I know all this fear will just make the accomplishment so much sweeter.
For the most part, I believe in myself, and I believe in us. I just know we are going to have the best RACE-CATION ever. I can't wait till September 30th, so we can start the official training. And I can't wait to continue to countdown the months, weeks, and days till race day.
I just know this event will be epic for the both of us.
