Unbelievable what the holidays wroght

I am now just a few days away from the race, and I can't believe how much I didn't do. I teach, and therefore, I had two weeks off. I think I spent it doing mostly eating and not running. Although I made sure I ran at least three days each week, and ran one half marathon, I could have done a ton more, and now that the race is only 5 days away, I am appalled that I didn't do more.

I don't want to run too far this week in order to make sure I don't hurt myself, but also realize that I am heavier than when I went into the holidays and can't believe I let that happen.

Ohh well, I'm sure I am going to finish, I'm just very anxious for the whole process. The getting to the race site, using the provided transportation, getting my number and tag on correctly. And now for the unknowns. I've always run alone, I don't know what its going to be like running with a crowd. Will I out pace myself due to the faster moving crowd will I miss something since I will be listening to my ipod? Who knows? Should I carb load? I don't know!

We'll find out in 5 days!
