Rob, you're going to find tomorrow as a whole new race, and a new set of lessons to take from it. I've run a lot of races, and several times on a few courses. There is always something different, even on the 'same old course'. May you find strength, joy, and beauty on the course tomorrow.

Wow, really enjoyed these reflections, Rob. It is really amazing what physical confidence comes with achieving these running goals. I can totally relate to your sense of wonder at being able to achieve things you had not thought possible before. It is so very wonderful you can share your life with someone who reinforces your belief in yourself too. Hope you enjoy your 6th Half! Be well, friend. :)
