Rest day walk with Murphy & Sam.Feeling a bit sick about tomorrow as I dont do this racing malarky!There are only half a dozen 55 AG females & I'll bet they're speedy whippets not lumbering lumps like me!Not that Im overweight,but,neither am I a whippetThere are no 60yr AG women,so I may do it next year & win a prize!!Lol!Ok - Im waffling now - nerves!!
I know this is easy to say from 6000 miles away, but try to focus on relaxing and enjoying being around other runners. Races are meant to be fun! And besides, ultimately you're only racing yourself. :-) The sun came out!!! Just in the nick of time. Best of luck tomorrow. x

Oh come on now, a lump?! I'll second what others have said - just go out, enjoy the atmosphere and the nice weather, scale some rocks and have a great time!

You know why there are only half a dozen women your age in the race? Cause the other hundreds of thousands of women your age are not even brave enough to attempt it! Hold your head high and run for all those who wish they were in your shape!

I seem to remember someone on here, who shall remain nameless but whose name begins with R and rhymes with tooth, who wrote something having to do with putting on positive pants and throwing out the negative knickers. Now who could that be and where in the heck is she when we need her to help Ruth stay positive? :+)

Lol Rina! This is why I dont enter races! My confidence is zilch!I know I just need to enjoy it & to heck with anything else! Im slow - but Im going to do it & if Im last Im last!Ive also made the mistake of checking out last years times - our fastest ones took a while!On the other hand - I have endurance & I think thats more important than speed on this one!

I'm running a race tomorrow too with about 500 people. It's the energy of the group that makes it soooo much fun. And, many of the runs are for good causes too. I'll be waiting to hear about your event.
