I was actually looking forward to this 10K on Monday until I found out about the hills. Now I’m nervous and already feeling like a failure because I don’t think I’ll be able to run as much as I wanted. Considering that I never intended to — or even thought I could — run the whole thing, I’m not sure why this is bothering me so much.
The fact is, I’m pretty sure I can meet most of my goals for the event.
1) Finish.
2) Run 30 minutes continuously.
3) Run at least 3.1 miles total during the race.
And that’s it. Those were my expectations before the “H” word started being bandied about. It would be rather difficult to adjust them down — because you can’t get much lower — and they still seem perfectly doable, so why am I getting so worked up about it?
Just gotta pull up my big girl panties (and that new running skirt I bought) and deal with it.
