Lose Yourself

Last August I ran my first 5k. It was the MN State Fair Milk Run. I signed up again for the end of this month... my second 5k... my second Milk Run!!

I am really excited and terrified at the same time. I did this last year and I rocked, so why would I be terrified? I am scared that I will finish with a slower time than I did last year. I am scared that my new shoes won't be broken-in by then. I am scared that my asthma will rear its ugly head. I am scared that I will get hurt.

Well... I'm done being scared.

All I need to do is listen to the beats, say the words and my feet will follow.

I can do this and it will be awesome!!

Thank you for helping me Eminem!
