T - 4 days
Went out for my second-to-last 3-miler yesterday. Today, I went to yoga. It’s been so long. I think it helped, though I still felt the tenderness in my left leg, which has traveled to reach up behind my knee and hamstring.
After that, I went out to buy my shirt for the big day. Well, two. One long sleeved, one short. Will probably go with the latter because I bought some handy arm warmer things at Paragon Sports per the suggestion of a marathon-veteran friend. They’re like socks, for arms. And I can throw them down when I get warm enough, instead of struggling with a jacket or rolling up sleeves. This should suffice, especially according to the latest weather news, which predicts a milder, temperature in the 50s day.
I’m actually really excited for Sunday. I’ve only had very few, brief flutters of anxiety. Which ironically probably prompts the majority of any anxiety I’ve felt, because if I’m not nervous now, what? Am I saving it for race day? Am I gonna be puking at the start line?
They didn’t seem to have devices for that at Paragon.
