resting up for my first race!

Tomorrow is going to be an exciting day, therefore, today was not so exciting, at least the latter part of the day wasn't!

I'm running my first of a series of five races tomorrow. It's a 10K (6mile) race-- I decided to run five short races instead of a half marathon or marathon this year. 

THEREFORE, I stayed off my feet today in order to rest my legs. I went to the the city to have lunch with ex-coworkers at mid-day, and then headed home, and found ways to occupy myself. I touched up the paint on my walls (zzz...). I video-chatted with my husband. I cooked a great vegetarian meal and set up the table divinely-- even though it was only me. I researched things that I've been meaning to do for a while. It was nice. Lets see if it all paid off tomorrow during the race. I LOVE to push myself and challenge myself, it's what makes my life exciting! 

I want to run less than 10 minutes per mile which means I want to finish in under an hour. I know I can do it! 

EXCITING!!!
