I have crazy butterflies today. I am so excited for the blogger/runner meet-up tonight. And I am more excited for this race than I have been about a race in a long time. I don't know if it's because I ran it last year and finally broke two hours on a half or if it's because I know so many people running, but I can hardly contain myself. That is why I am blogging instead of napping. I knew it was pointless to try and sleep when all I would do is waste time thinking about tomorrow.
As far as tomorrow goes, I already picked up my packet and have my race day outfit selected. I'll be sporting a pink shirt, just as an FYI. My goal is a PR, which means faster than 1:57:18. The course is downhill and they changed it just a little from last year so there isn't an uphill during the last mile this time. I feel pretty good about it. Oh, and I'd like to not puke after I finish, but that isn't exactly a goal.
I'm excited to run with the help of some new tunes too, thanks to all of you. Here's what I added to my playlist:
- Enter Sandman - Metallica
- River Deep, Mountain High - Glee
- Rolling in the Deep - Adele
- More - Usher
- Pokerface - Lady Gaga
- Magic - B.o.B
- Walk - Foo Fighters
- Party Rock Anthem - LMFAO
- Ray of Light - Madonna
- Spotlight - MuteMath
- The Middle - Jimmy Eat World
- Man on the Moon - MJ*
- Remember the Name - Fort Minor*
- Pressure - Billy Joel*
- Big Girls Are Best - U2*
- Elevation - U2*
- When Love Comes to Town - U2*
- Desire - U2*
(* Songs I already owned)
