OK, KDF mini is here

04/24/09 | by Tom [mail] | Categories: News

Training is over, and everyone has the cards they were dealt. We'll see what everyone is holding in the morning.

I have trained well, and enjoyed most every step along the way. Even that painfull 14 mile run that I did way back in October of last year, well before I was ready for it. I am going to run the best race I can run tomorrow, and regardless of how it ends, or how fast I run, I will be exceedingly happy. It doesn't matter if I meet any time goals, or if I end up having to walk any of it. As I mentioned to Joe earlier today, when we originally made the plan to run this race this year, I never actually believed that I would stick to it and actually see it through. Huge, Mountainous thanks to Joe, and to kriston as well for helping keep me motivated and to the starting line tomorrow. So regardless of how it turns out, I have achieved more than I ever thought I would.

Good luck to all the runners tomorrow. May each of you reach what ever goal you may have set for yourself.
