Tomorrow’s the big day, my first 5K race! All I want is for my stomach to stop feeling like it is full of razor-winged butterflies. This is supposed to be fun, right? I don’t know because I’ve never done it before.
gratitude: lots and lots of water · having FunkyPlaid around tonight to calm my nerves · every patient person who has heard me talk about this too much

Just go do the dang thing! And know that I’m rooting for you all the way. <3
You’ll do great. In the end, it’s just a run; and we all know you can do that! And yes, race day is a lot more fun than the night (or the week) before. Enjoy it!
How did you go?
Full race report is now up here!
It will be an amazing experience! Nothing like a solid workout to motivate you for the week. Good luck!
