Last pre-race run!

Just a mile. That's all.

But it's the last mile before running in the 5K race Saturday!

My mile was fine - 11:31. It felt good. I ended up with my neighbor friend, her son, and Daniel all running with me. I felt like I could have gone much faster, but was trying to stay with them and not kill them. Daniel didn't have that kind of patience and left us all in the dust. I hope I feel that good Saturday.

Speaking of Saturday, to ease some of the anxiety about running in a race for the first time since Tahoe, my coach has decided to run with me. On one hand - I'm thrilled. I think it will be a lot of fun to have him with me. On the other hand - I'm terrified. What if I mess up big time? What if I fail? In front of him?? But - then again - he is my coach and I'm sure he's seen it all.

Biggest issue with Saturday's race? What to wear!!!!! Oh my goodness - I would do anything to fit into my favorite comfie but cute running gear. Hopefully that day will come before Roanoke's race - or at least by Tahoe's race - but right now I feel like an ogre.
