Good attitude

Glynis and I ran 8 km this morning in the humidity.  I had to stop every 2 km or so to catch my breath but Glynis was fine.  We joked imagining October 20 being in the middle of an Indian summer.  I told Glynis I could see her flying through it at Boston marathon qualifying speed, going home, stretching, having a shower and a snack, then coming back to the finish line yelling 'here comes Jennifer around the bend!'

I could see myself panting and finishing it in 5 1/2+ hours but never once did I see myself not crossing the finish line.  Not finishing didn't even enter my mind.

It's going to happen, easily or not.  I will complete it (but hopefully in 4 hrs).
