training day number forty-six

man it is getting closer to race day with just over two months to go. i wonder if i can sustain the jitters for that long. i guess i don't have the jitters yet but i just hope i am doing enough training to finish the race. the key for me is to stay in the moment. the cycle of input from other people is what freaks me out.  i wish i would only get good encouraging advice but i don't. in fact, i almost freak about the "what if" comments and have to push them out of my mind. in the end i will just do my best anyway.

today's run was good. i felt good and ran good. the weather was great at 71 degrees. the sunrise was beautiful and the traffic was not bad and did not cut my stride. everyone i encountered was nice and most said "good morning" to me before i said it to them. i know i just said "i need to stay in the moment" but i am looking forward to sunday's run of 12 miles. plus it's my birthday and i have a bottle of champagne on ice waiting for my return. :)
