When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

remind your lungs how much they like the taste of air.

if i do the bulk of my running in the pm, will that mess things up come race time saturday morning?
still worried about rubbing noses with *real* runners

One thing I learned and enjoyed, is that when I first got into running and going to races my friends would tell everyone around us that it was my first, or second or third race...it was awesome how much support I got from all the runners around me. Try it, you'll see how good you'll feel with everyone telling you that you'll do great and that you'll have fun and all that. During the race runners will remember you and cheer you on with support if they notice you getting tired, or slowing down. Plus, it gives other first time racers a chance to speak up and join you with being nervous and excited!! Just some of the many reasons why I enjoy running and racing.

On your deathbed, you won't wish that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will wish that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.
