26.2 - part 3





Even though we've both run two other marathons, there is something about running a marathon that will never get old and never feel comfortable or easy. With the race about 12 hours away, Jason and I are secretly quite nervous. The kind of secret that is between just us and the Internet, of course. Don't tell. Things of nervous concern:

Did we eat healthily enough?
Will our 18 weeks of training serve us well?
Did we train enough?
Did we train too much?
Will we remember our numbers?
Will we remember our time chips?
Did we drink enough water?
Will we wake up on time?
Will we be able to find parking?
Will it be cold?
Will it rain?
Will there be chafing?
Can our bathroom visits be timed appropriately?
Will our shoes be ok?
Will we achieve our time goals?
Will we get enough sleep?
Or
Will these obsessive thoughts keep us up all night?
