15 DAYS TO GO!
OK, 16 until we start walking. But two weeks from tomorrow, I’ll be checking into the hotel to prepare for opening ceremonies. Have you ever had something that felt like it was NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN because it was so far away and then all of a sudden, BOOM, its right around the corner? That’s how it is with the 3 Day right now.
I signed up in January, and there were more than 9 months standing between me and the walk. Enough time to build a whole person– surely that meant there was oodles of time for training and fundraising and researching gear. Right?
On the one hand, definitely. I’ve got my 2 pair of sneakers for the walk. I know what I need to get and what I have already. There are some loose ends to tie up, but it is under control. My fundraising minimum has been met, raised, met again and raised again. I feel like my efforts will take a bit (or at least a nibble) out of breast cancer, and it feels pretty good. I’ve been training. I’ve been walking and walking and walking some more. I’ve trained in the heat, in the cold, in the dark and even in the rain. I’d have trained in the snow, but this is Atlanta, and snow is hard to come by. I feel like I could have, should have, would have done more, but I know I have done a reasonable amount, and I will be ok with the walking. If not, there is always the sweep van.
All my bases are logically covered. I know this.
So why I am I sitting here starting to panic about the 60 miles?! What was I thinking?! How will I ever do this? What was I thinking?!
