Lacing Up at 60,  Motivation

Let the race begin…I’m ready!

The race is tomorrow morning and I’m both excited and nervous.   I could tell, as my sleep was a bit erratic last night. Yesterday, I went to see Nancy Burns, Valley Acupuncture, for my pre-race energy tune-up.   I did this before my big  race, and I truly believe it helps with energy and my muscles.    My friend and fellow runner, Kathie, is coming over shortly and we’ll head to the Race check-in to pick up our packets.   They are expecting nearly 20,000 to run/walk tomorrow at the San Jose Rock’nRoll 1/2 Marathon, so should be both fun and crowded.   Nice to see so many people out doing fun, fit and reasonably priced activities. The world is not falling completely apart as the news may seem to indicate…at least not for us  runners! Other things to prepare for tomorrow, I’m  drinking lots of water and Gatorade, went for a brisk walk, and will have a nice healthy dinner this evening and get to bed early.   Preparation is the key and I’ve done all I can, so let the race begin!
