Ok, it's the big day tomorrow I raised 240 bucks for the womens shelter I am pretty happy I didn't get as many pledges as I would have liked but, I still got some so that's awesome. ANy how I am going to be doing my first 10 k I have never run that far but, I am sure I can if anything it will be a real challenge and I will prove to myself I can do it,

Wish me luck on this crazy endevour of self discovery LOL

Sarah, you can do it!

Don't get caught up in the 'quick start' ... pace yourself, stay toward the rear of the group (believe me, you will pass them up later when they start to suck wind big-time!) Do an easy run for the first mile or two, then crank it up and add in some sprints from time to time ... cut back on about the 5 mile mark and prepare for a strong finish! Give it your all that last mile!

Most of all, ENJOY YOURSELF! (did you ever think you'd be in a 6.2 mile run?) WOOHOO! Can't wait to hear all about it!

You rock, girlfriend!
