Nerves

Marathon #53 is tomorrow. This should be old-hat by now, having run 50 of these already in the past 10 years. But, no matter what - regardless of whether I have a specific time goal of my own at stake or I'm running to "merely" enjoy the course and experience or even pace a friend - I'm nervous. 

  • Adrenaline has already started pumping. 
  • Tension is rising. 
  • Anxiety about whether I have actually packed everything that I need is ever-present. 
  • Concern about whether the flight will be on time arriving is even higher for today's departure is higher than normal and won't dissipate until we're wheels-up.
