And its all come down to this.

Race day.

Everything that I never thought I would do, and now I find myself waking up at 7am so I can eat a proper race day breakfast. I'm thinking about how to warm my heart up and get my muscles squishy before race time. I picked up my free t-shirt. And (and!) I bought a race get-up.

Yes, I will be running today in real, tight, racing pants.

And as I wait to head out this morning, all I want to do is go back three years and give myself a hug. It's okay Laura, it was all worth it. Who ever knew when I started, oversized sweat pants in the middle of the summer, tennis shoes, walking more than I ran, that I would be here.

Here. 128lbs, 5km race.

Hang in there baby, the best is yet to come.
