excited!!

Well my very exciting news for the day is that not only is there a friendly 2 hour pacer for the half marathon - the fabulous Gnome - Go Girl has also very very kindly offered to run with me.

I am VERY excited and extremely grateful because I think that having someone there with me will make a huge difference. I will admit to being slightly apprehensive as having people there with me means that I won't be able to use any of the cop out excuses to go slower that I would use if i was on my own.

But - as I mentioned to Go Girl, if there was ever a time to REALLY TRULY give it everything I've got - this must be it. So as of today I am starting the positive self talk about all things half marathon and 2 hours!

Yayayayayayayyyy!!!!!

OK - that said, today I didn't go to training because the rain was practically horizontal. I did get up early and have come in to work early so straight after work I am going to hit the gym for either a spin class or some cross-trainer-ing and a big stretching session.

(did i mention that i am excited??)
