We completed our last scheduled run at the Community Center last night in preparation for the Star Wars Dark Side 10K at Walt Disney World this Saturday. I figured it was fitting to choose locker #77 for my last run (Star Wars 1977...made sense to me). We did an easy 2 miles of run/walk, no timer, but we kept up our regular 30/60 interval. Aside from just feeling horribly tired in general, we both felt pretty good after this run. Last night and the long run this past weekend have made both the Nerd Husband and me feel pretty good about this coming weekend.
I think we can do this.
It's been fun perusing the Disboards, watching everyone get excited for the upcoming races. People are posting pictures of their costumes - which always makes me happy to see what people come up with. There are folks making dinner plans, discussing options on what to do regarding injuries, and people just generally fanboy and girl squeeing all over the place. It reminds me of my old message board days on StarWars.com, and that makes me rather happy. I need that right now, I think - just a bit of old fashioned happiness.
Our bag is packed and ready to go, aside from those "get ready" items that you kind of need to - you know - get ready. Toothbrush, stuff like that. That will get tossed in the suitcase early on Friday morning, and we'll head on out to the airport to start this year of Disney craziness off right. I have a few things I still need to take care of - just have to work on getting my carry-on put together, and then I think I'm golden. That will be my job this evening.
I had so many projects I wanted to complete for this trip. My brain went into overdrive on creativity, but I had to nix those due to time and stress. I didn't want to stress. It wasn't worth it. So I set those things off to the side for "later". I'd like to come back to them, eventually.
For now, that's what I've got to share. It's not much, but we're getting closer...
