And a running I will go.....



10 years ago, I stood by the road with a Bloody Mary in hand watching all the runners go by and told myself that there was no way I could ever run the Gate River Run 15K. Tomorrow, I will be telling myself a different story….that I can do it and that I did do it! I am as ready as I can be and am looking forward to crossing that finish line and celebrating afterwards :)



The biggest challenges will be:


1. That I don't get my famous cramp :( I have been eating banana's like I am a monkey so hopefully that will help :)


2. That my feet won't start to hurt like they have been lately at about 4 miles.


3. And that I will make it over the BIG GREEN MONSTER!!! I drove over that thing yesterday and WOW.....I have to say I am totally intimidated.


It is scuuuurrrrrrrryyyyyyyy!!!!

All in all, I think it will be an exciting race. Bands at every mile, 18,000 runners and of course the SJGCC girl posse and friends that will be celebrating afterwards.
