Less than two weeks?!?!?! I'm not ready...

I go back and forth on freaking out about the pending 10K. Yesterday, I was so tired, I couldn't even think straight. Some days I have no motivation to exercise, let alone to run. It’s less than two weeks away. Am I ready? Should I be worried? What should I be thinking? Well, I've decided I am not going to freak out about it. First, I’ve never run a 10K, so whatever I do will be my best. I don’t think I can run even 4 miles without stopping right now. However, because of the momentum of the whole thing, perhaps Anne and I will do better than we think. I think this race is a good starting point to push me towards my training for the half marathon – which we're ahead of looking at that schedule. I think of this as a stepping stone, not an ultimate goal. I think it’s great practice and experience; and I’m deciding right now not to fret over it. I will be proud of where I am and strive to be better!
