'Twas the Night Before the Marathon

Good evening, readers! I wasn't planning on posting tonight, but decided to do a quick post to capture how I am feeling on the eve of the marathon. I must say, I am a bit nervous for this marathon; I think the way I feel is different from how Amber feels since I have done a marathon so I sort of know what to expect. I suppose this feeling is akin to how a woman feels when preparing for the birth of a 2nd child - meaning, she knows how rewarding the experience is going to be, but she also has an idea of the pain of the process...

Or at least that is what I assume since I haven't have any kids of my own and all...

I am nervous for the race, but I am ready. I trained hard and I trained smart for this race. I know my body is ready to get me through 26.2 miles - even if there is an 80% chance of rain!

I'm off to take some melatonin (which has been a God send, by the way), and then it's off to bed. Good night, dear readers. I'll see you on the other side of 26.2.

PS - if you want to read about my amazing vacation, Amber's been recapping it over on her blog!
