Big moments in life always carry a healthy amount of nervousness and excitement.

I’m about to run my tenth marathon in less than twenty four hours and these feelings never get old. Doesn’t matter whether it’s the first, sixth or tenth marathon. The nervousness and excitement for the big day are still as prevalent as ever.

I’ve been thinking about and preparing for this race for the past six months. My mind has ran it countless of times this week. My body has been waking up in the middle of the night afraid of missing the dozen of alarms I’ve set for race day.

Yet, I had a nightmare last night about tomorrow – I woke up late and missed it.

Thankfully, it was just a nightmare so I went back to sleep.

Tomorrow is the day and I’m more than ready.

Here we go!
