4 more days....

I AM NOT READY..... not mentally anyways....

First, I missed my opportunity to run 12 miles on 9-19 because I thought my son's bike-a-thon was more important (it was). I ran 6 miles instead. Then I didn't run a long run until this past Monday - and that was only 5 miles. The household is sick. Well, most of it. We're on the mend, but it threw a monkey wrench into my running schedule.

Sooooo...................... Sunday is the day. I'm worried. I'm sure I'll do good for the first 8-10 miles. After that, who knows? I'll just be sure to keep my cell phone on me in case I need to call for help.

If you want to come out and support me, please go here for the details: http://www.rnrsj.com

You can wait at the finish line, or search for my body along the race pathway. It's up to you. I won't find out my race number until Friday (or whenever I pick up my packet - I'm looking at Friday).

Any tips for me? Anyone run this particular course before? I have one friend who ran another Rock n Rock marathon and said all the music helped pass the time. I hope that's true this Sunday for me as well.
