What a cliff diver must feel just as he pushes off – that’s the feeling in my gut, knowing what I’ve signed for, knowing what’s ahead.
Fear & excitement, same time – how will my body hold up? Can I run injury free? How far & how often do I train when running full marathons over 7 consecutive weekends? Can I stay consistent with sleep & not blow nutrition – different airports, different time zones, racing in unpredictable weather, travelling from New Jersey to North Dakota?
Breathe, then…break a grin – good or bad, this experience is gonna change me.
