T-7 Days to the Half Marathon

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Anyone who knows me knows I am an anxious mess, pretty much 24/7, over everything that occurs in my normal life. So, I bet you can imagine my growing freak-out as January 8th comes closer and closer. I have been checking accuweather.com and weather.com twice a day to figure out what my race weather will be like, and what my flying out weather will be like. I've made a deal with God/The Universe/Mother Nature that as long as the flying weather is safe and good, I will run in any weather without complaint. *fingers crossed*

I have started packing a few items I won't need between now and the race, like my watch and Clif Blocks and a sports bra, etc. I have a two-page list of what I need to bring, and I am freaking out that I will get to Florida and realize I forgot some crucial item. Contacts, my running shoes, my Wellbutrin, LOL... not that it' working.

I am trying to do the reverse-thinking that sometimes helps me. Instead of worrying bout everything, I am trying to hold onto the thought of how lucky I am to be able to do this race: financially, physically, time-wise, etc. It helps some, but not long-term.

One of the dictionary.com definition of anxious is "earnestly desirous, eager", so I am going to focus on that way of looking at this. WAHOO!
